Upside Down Clouds and an Orange House

I don't buy embellishments often...

but these layered chipboard elements were too cute to pass up.

Recycled Clothing Tag and a Pink Notepad

I obviously don't have willpower when it comes to neon....
and when enabled by challenges. ;)

CASE this SKetch #7

The tag is a recycled clothing tag, and I glittered the plastic "U" for the challenge:

Mailbox Numbers in Neon

I'm hooked on the 

Keen On Neon Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.

This time, I found THE PERFECT CHRISTMAS embellishments in my leftover 

Mailbox Numbers stash.

 I couldn't throw those away...they are sticky and durable!

They are paintable too~yay!

So I used my Elmer's Neon Paint Marker~

 The message of Christmas is a NOW MESSAGE

and totally acceptable in NOW colors, if you ask me.

A Dash of Blues and Brown

I was 29 when I came to know Jesus.


I relate to the wise men who traveled many miles...


except my journey was

in years.



I wouldn't go back to being Marlena alone~
 
without Him.

This was a 10 minute card on the dot....


I used the last 45 seconds to finish the card off with a light blue (I forgot about that color being in the challenge).

~Neon Tag~

 I'm from the 80's.

 I remember neon and my eyes had their booster shots.

Now you go get yours...

 

Keen On Neon Challenge in the Moxie Fab World

will make your eyes pop!!!

Cath is not kidding you...neon is IN RIGHT NOW....

just step into your nearest Justice store 

and set your eyes on this baby.

 

 Ok.

you can rub your eyes now.

LOL.

I got a great deal on it and my girlie LOVES IT.

So,

she glows

and so does everyone in her midst!  hee hee

As for the challenge and lovely inspiration at the MOXIE...

I was inspired by the brown baby shoes with neon caps.

I think brown takes neon to a whole new "now" and doable level,

where you don't have to get a headache.

See?

Not too blinding. ;)

I dabbed the "cap" of this tag in Versamark and embossed with a bright pink powder.

I did the same with the snowflake

and the

little circle frame...the hardest thing was to

 keep that on the paper when I used the heat gun.

I am also participating in 

Simon Says Stamp Challenge: Anything Goes

I don't make as many tags as I should....but with this challenge..I might just 

create more!

Have a blessed day~thanks for stopping in.
