idea skeleton:

I couldn’t make a blank one without explaining my new hypothesis which is making “blank ones” isn’t easy when you want to come up with a fun placeholder image. But, this will serve as a template until I get tired of it, so that’s good. I think.

Created during FMBP session: Funky gif at Free Online Animated GIF Maker – Make A GIF Easily. I used it because it was faster than figuring it out and that’s always been my process.

I used a christmas card design I had in the most recent scans pile and layers of gradient, mouse-drawn-text and blending modes to create something that would change colors in unexpected ways, making the image pop and the process transparent.
