We all made one greeting card each for a holiday we invented. I originally had a lot of lovely ideas, such as happy colonoscopy day, and I also wanted to draw innards and rib bones, but well dreams don't always come true DO THEY. I went with happy emotional breakdown day in the end, 'cause we all need a positive spin on our darkest moments right? :D It may not be visible in the picture, but for the inside black background I used scraps of velvet, which I think helps make the card heavier in atmosphere. I also like that I made the brain a frown to contrast with the bottom laugh. However, I kind of failed on the speech bubble part, since I just could not glue it properly onto all the velvet, so now when you open the card, the little tail sticks out all weird and unwanted. Also, since the background's so dark, the face itself needs more darkness in its shading.
