I am playing along with 2 challenges today:
Make it Monday: Using Cover Plate Negatives
Muse Challenge #81 I did a twist on the chevrons on the muse card and tried to mimic the colors as they are so bright and cheerful.
ETA : The wonderful Anita suggested I join in at Addicted to CAS:code word Geometric so here I go! I'm away from home so trying to do this on my tablet. I hope I got the Addicted to CAS badge to show!

I'm trying to figure out a better system for taking photos inside on dull days! This isn't it, but getting closer I think.
Thanks for Looking!
