I know you're super busy right now, so let's get right to it, shall we? I'm very excited to announce that these five cards are our winning entries to our Keen on Neon challenge. Check it:
Moxie Fab Alert: Not only is this a moxie fab use of neon colors in a holiday card, but I also adore the way those brights are paired with a rugged neutral. And not only does the texture Donna has added to the background help the design element shine, but the way Donna has balanced the elements to create the tree is something magical and amazing.
Moxie Fab Alert: What a striking treatment of neon in this stunning clean and graphic card! The combination of lime green and hot pink softened by the script "Christmas" and the holly berry makes a big impact!
Moxie Fab Alert: One of the things I like the most about color trends is that you can take what might be considered a traditional design and "jazz it up" with an unexpected color combination. What a shock of joy this card is as a result!
Moxie Fab Alert: Another creative application of neon, I love the way Helen has incorporated neon colors in her stamping to create this funky yet beautiful ornament.
Moxie Fab Alert: I absolutely adore the bright, bold approach to what normally would be a very traditional card. The neon shades of orange, pink, blue, green, and purple send this card into the trendy stratosphere!
Winners, please send me your addresses in an email to cedvalson@papercraftsmag.com and I'll set you up with your "I'm Moxie Fab" challenge winning buttons for your blogs as well as a delicious prize from my moxie magical prize drawer!

What a stunning job ladies! I'm so in love with the diecut Merry Christmas card and the snowflake card! :)
Love them all, especially the ornament card.
Very deserving winners! Great job.
What pretty cards! Very inspiring.
The Folk Art Christmas Card looks like needlepoint or cross-stitch.
Since those are one of my other hobbies I think that is my favorite.
I really enjoy seeing how the colors inspire these very talented ladies.
I love that neon blue snowflake card by Chupa!
I'm not usually a big fan of neon, however, these cards have definitely changed my mind! Congratulations ladies!
Love the Neon Christmas Card by Kelly Griglione. The contrast of colors and graphic quality are so well done.
Great looking cards and love the Neon colors

Neon isn't my go to but these gals made it look fabulous. Love the ornament!
They are all fab, normally I would not go for neon colours but the lime green and pink stands out. I love the colourcombination.
They are all so different, I don't use neon but the Yellow star,orange, pink, lime green one the gray background is my fav.
They are all amazing. love the bright Merry card!
how creative they are over there! I especially love Kelly's card. Congrats to the winners!
Holy smokin' neons, Santa!!! These are hot cards!!! Definite winners all of them!!
Neons/brights are my fave colors -just love all these cards in their own way.
Love the different looks. Can see many other cards being made in similar ways. Thanks for sharing.
As a child of the '80s, neon is the retro for me! Love me some bright colors and all these cards are fabulous. Well deserving of their winning status!
These cards are all so cheerful and fun. It's much easier for me to do the non-traditional colours before November/December. Once the cooler temps hit I am back to the deep rich reds and woodsy greens. Maybe I need to make all my cards in August next year! :D
Great cards, I am not usually into neon so much, but these are great. Thanks. jeannett_mcgee@comcast.net
These cards are stunning! My favorite is Chupa's.
Beautiful, bright cards! Congrats to the winners!
I love the neon for Christmas cards, never would have used it myself. LOVE the Joy card, so bright and cheery. thanks for the inspirations.
Love the cut out Merry - awesome!
These cards are great!

I love all of the cards. What strikes me is how different each one of these cards is even though they are all Christmas and all neon colors.
The cards are fantastic! I especially love Kelly's Neon Christmas. I didn't image when the challenge went up that Neon would be hideous - but boy I was wrong. cheers Linda
wow!! I'm not a huge fan of neon colors, but WOW WOW WOW! well done ladies!
I love the cut-outs in the neon card and the snowflakes in the Sending Christmas Joy Card by Chupa
I love Iwona's card. Amazing!
