There's A Great Big, Beautiful Tomorrow

Good morning and a very happy Friday, the weekend starts now! The first challenge this month over at Lost Coast Designs is 'Neon' so sunglasses at the ready, here is my piece.

This was going to be such a simple project, but then I went down the 'what if ' rabbit hole....

I started with some neon stars from a local pound shop. I just glued them to my journal page and punched the holes back in.

Then I decided that as my main image was to be the new Dirigible I wanted a steampunky background, so I stamped some more stars, and also stamped and die cut some hexagons.

I stamped and coloured my images many times but still couldn't seem to get them right, so in the end, I just coloured some card with highlighter pens.

Then stamped and embossed in black. Perfect, just what I wanted, and I could have saved myself a couple of hours if I'd done this to start with, but where's the fun in that!

Now I don't mean to brag, but I drew this cloud all by myself lol. The quote is from a song on the Carousel of Progress ride in Disney World. It's one of my very favourite rides, I used to love the sit down in the cool after running around the theme parks with the kids.

These are the stamps that I've used. They are all from Lost Coast and are;

STP Dirigible

STD Raven

Gears 2 (background)

I hope that you like my journal page, and also that you join in with our fun challenge. Just show us your neon colours and your rubber (or clear) stamping for the chance to win some Lost Coast dollars.

Have a very happy weekend, and thanks so much for looking x
