Oh my gosh- Betsey Johnson is crazy! Have you ever seen that woman? She's a nut. She's known for colorful and funky designs, and for the cartwheels she does down the runway! You can guarantee that her fashion shows will always be entertaining.
When I saw that background, I immediately thought of black glitter. That brought me to New Years, which lead me to make this card:
Although not as outlandish as a chick in a short dress and scuba gear, I think my card does manage to have the same party-like energy (at least I hope!). The strip of black glitter adds just the right amount of sparkle, but not enough to compete with the blue rhinestones.
I also wanted to incorporate the orange, but in a more subtle way- I die cut 5 of each letter in a bright NEON orange and adhered them in a stack to go behind the black ones. I'm uploading this card to Cath's Keen on Neon challenge :)
