On the one above, I did a \u00a0swirly hodgepodge and on the one below I \u00a0did rainbow stripes. Then I stamped the Chalkboard Fan background with versafine onyx. \u00a0I used versafine because I consistently get a better black coverage with large, detailed images like this one. \u00a0On the one above, I used the Vintage Flourish die to die cut the entire background, then die cut another out of white. I covered a piece of white paper with adhesive (just used my ATG big gun) and stuck the white version to it. Call me crazy, but I took all the neon piece (negative bits that are usually discarded) and pieced them into the corresponding spaces on the white version. Then I placed the die back over it and ran it through the embossing cycle again just to make sure it all stuck in place. \u00a0I used the largest center die to cut out the large neon center frame and used the smallest insert to cut the scrolly frame. So I actually got all of the neon pieces out of the one background! Not too shabby! The greeting was stamped w\/ neon pink ink and the \u00a0frame w\/ black then fussy cut.The white layer was stamped w\/ black and die cut.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Neon-Framed-Bday-03221.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-15869\" title=\"Neon Framed Bday 03221\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Neon-Framed-Bday-03221.jpg\" alt=\"Julie Warner - https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\" width=\"495\" height=\"382\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><span style=\"color: #ffbdde;\">This one was a bit simpler. I added a die cut white frame that I pierced all the way around and a smaller white frame that was stamped with black. The scrolly center was done the same as above except in white. So in reality, I actually was able to make two A2 sized birthday cards out of <strong>1 <\/strong>piece of 8.5 x 11 white card stock (not counting the actual cards). Not too bad, considering all the parts and pieces! These are the Copics &amp; Sharpies I used for both cards.<\/span><a style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\" href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Neon-Bday-copics-03212.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-15871\" title=\"Neon Bday copics 03212\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Neon-Bday-copics-03212.jpg\" alt=\"Julie Warner - https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\" width=\"500\" height=\"382\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Thanks so much for stopping by!
