To CathyO in March


 This one is odd. I have not posted the truly wretched rainbows. This one is popping up because it illustrates that using less orange was better. You'll be seeing that the strong stamps and strong names just made the whole design top heavy. 

There is also the issue of proportion. It looked better to have the name get closer to the edges. It's a little more balanced. The randomness of the color inside the letters looked like it needed more - and then I said - Nope - leave it alone. I'd been overworking all of them -- so, while it probably didn't look like a good one when it arrived at Cathy's - when she sees the wretched ones - she'll be glad she got this one.
