A Little Neon Goes a Long Way!

This is my second post for today - I've been productive at last!

This card is for the Inkspirational  {Neon} Challenge. Takes me back to the 8o's! I really don't like neon very much, although I do have a very bright ski top - it looks great in the snow! But in Australia where the sun shines a lot, we don't need more bright! Anyhow, my theory is, if you are foing to use a neon colour, then use it sparingly!


Speaking of bright, I have tried to get a decent photo of this card 3 times today and I keep getting the blue cast,
so I am sorry about that.
The stamps are oldies from Kaisercraft and the embossing folder is also from Kaisercraft.
The tags were cut with a Papertrey Ink die.
I will also enter this in Virginia's View challenge, which is all about layers and dimension. My favourite way to add layers is by using tags. I think embossing the background and the splatter add dimension. I am also entering the Tag You're it challenge - I was inspired by the swirls the big bold element and ribbon on Nancy's beautiful tag.

  2. What a good idea to use the neon as a hint and it works so well here. It really compliments the black and white. Fab embossing and great to see you at Ink x
