I stamped the different mixed media stamps using the neon inks. To make the images pop I stamped them using StazOn Jet Black ink and embossed them using Stampendous black embossing powder.
I then added a touch of hot pink color fragments and hot orange color fragments and a few sequins.
After all that mixed media I decided a clean and layered card was in order.
I stamped the image using StazOn black ink. I then painted the flower using the neon inks and a waterbrush. I added a hint of shading with watercolor pencils. I stamped the sentiment on vellum and attached it over the image.

ReplyDeleteHi Sue, Long time, no see ......again! Love what you've done with these very bright colours. Love the black against them on the tag. That is so effective but the card shows how they can still be fairly subtle. That's a lovely image too.
