Ok scrappy friends yesterday's post (you can scroll down a post if you are curious) got all emo and serious so today I dedicate to FUN.
Side note- Girl with a Dragon Tattoo? Too awesome for words. See it.

Amigas- I need your help!
My Neon color challenge doesn't have any entrants yet and there's 9 days left to link.
The last day will be April 6th.
Can you- will you- join the fun?
Here is another inspiration piece:

Ok so THIS was REAL fun! First I tried using black gesso on a Crafter's Workshop template but OH NOOO it bled right through the borders so I had to use white gesso to stamp the borders of the template back on. I made the pin wheels myself and If you remember the 80'd were not complete without stripes and polka dots so the blank side of the paper got special attention. I used a Bam POP! paper pad I've had a VERY LONG TIME. I bought it on a whim and got scared of the totally 80's neon print. I also used Hambly mini trannies that I LOOOVE and will be getting more of as well as my go to item- Gauche Alchemy punchinella in black. Last minute yellow twine.. there's probably too much happening here but hey- take this as your moment to teach ME a lesson on restraint! I don't mind!!! I LOVE SCHOOL!!!! |
I turn to you my FIERCE and loyal readers! (Yes all 3 of you!!!)
Go on out to Target and get some neon index cards or some price stickers or maybe a child's paint set and GET TO WORK.
Link up here pretty pretty please with a nice cherry on top. :)
Perhaps you want to stick around and to take a look around Yvonne's blog?
Her work is amazing!

I haven't used the word "rad" since last week so I made sure to add it to my page to make super duper SURE ya'll got the HINT. If you aren't slam dancing to Billy Idol right this very second you are making this short Puerto Rican girl cry. |

| Pinwheel! Makes me happy! |
So there you have it- a shameless self promoting plea and a call to action.
GRATUITOUS TODDLER PHOTO!!!

The Hipstamatic can easily provide neon photos to match neon layouts. I use an iTouch- it's cheaper and doesn't require a data plan. Plus you could score a great one online used- who wants an iTouch when the new iPhones have better cameras? (ME!!!) |
Muchitas gracias!
