Radiant Neon Blog Hop




Welcome to the Imagine Crafts/CardMaker blog hop.



Thanks for joining us today!
You should have arrived here from Taylor's wonderful blog. 
If you find a broken link or need to go back to the beginning, you can always go to the CardMaker Blog to start over. 

Today we are focusing on Neon colors, which is the new trend for fashion as well as a paper crafting for 2014.


So let's create this card:

1.  Start with a card base of white card stock measuring 5.5. x 4.25 when folded. Ink edges with all of the Radiant Neon colors. Set aside.
2.  Cut white card stock just a bit smaller than base. Die cut openings as shown using Tiny Tags die.  Stamp and heat emboss sentiment.
3.  Take a large scrap of white card stock, stamp and heat emboss tiny flowers. Ink around the flowers with four of the Radiant Neon inks. Adhere to back of die cut panel with foam adhesive so the pretty neons show through the openings. Adhere this panel to card base.
4.  Die cut and ink a tag using Radiant Neon Purple. Adhere to card front with foam adhesive. Tie floss into a double bow, attach and add a neon button.



Have you been collecting the "Electric Words" along the hop?
Make sure you jot down VIVID... (so appropriate!)


Ok...on to your next stop..... Kristine  has something special planned and another Electric Word for you.

Penny I think that I'll be breaking out this die set this weekend and be lifting this idea from you! Love all the color on this fun card.

Fabulous, awesome card. Love the way you highlighted the colors with die cut outs. Operation Write Home is awesome, I make cards too, but much more simple.
