You may want to put on your sunglasses...

HA! Like the title of this post??? ;) The other day I watched a documentary called "Just Like Being There". It's about gig posters, and the artists who make them. Well, I got super inspired! I loved the 60's era gig posters, and had this card in my head immediately. So, I ordered Hero Arts Neon Inks. :) I stamped the Here Comes The Sun background from MarketStreetStamps first with neon yellow ink. Then I twisted the stamp to offset it a bit and stamped with neon orange. Then I punched out a circle so I could add some sequins for the sun. I promise in real life the sequins pick up the colors. They don't look bluish and purplish in person. 
I can't tell you how incredibly relaxing I find gluing sequins to be. LOVE it! I stamped the greeting from the You're Brilliant set from MyCreativeTime. Then I added some black sequins to finish it off. 

I hope you're having a great day!

p.s. The sequins I used on this card came from HERE
