“If it isn’t NEON, it shouldn’t BE ON”.
That was the theme of the party, and it’s stuck with me every since. Seriously, neon colors get a bad rep, but they are super fun!
- Bright!
- Loud!
- Attention-grabbing!
That’s why this next care package is dedicated to that neon quote. If you’re looking for a simple care package decorating project, this is it. This project was super easy to do with my silhouette cameo.
I made a cut file, knowing that I was just going to use the negative side of the file (meaning… not the letters that were cut out). I peeled off the cardstock carefully off the cutting mat to not rip the paper. If you have a silhouette hook tool thingy, you can get around the tricky spots.
After that, you simply:
-Pick out the cardstock you want to use
-Measure and mark the appropriate size you need to cut
-Cut with a paper trimmer or craft scissors
-Adhere to negative cardstock with strong, dry adhesive (Tombow stamp runner is highly recommended)
REPEAT!
Some tips for your neon care package
-if your paper is curling, set it aside under some heavy books to help flatten it out
-avoid having any seams when you adhere the cardstock together
-try to reuse the scraps to save paper
This whole care package took me maybe 30 minutes at the most from start to finish. See the video below for a step by step process.
