Discotheque in Osaka

I suppose this is a strange title, but that's what pops into my mind when I'm looking at my latest creation :P
This is probably the most out-of-my-comfort zone card ever lol, but I'm pleased with the effect.
I've got this large stack of origami papers in neon colours, and they've been tempting and annoying me at the same time, because they're really nice patterns but the colours are, mildly speaking, not for everybody :)
The current challenge at Colour Create gave me an opportunity to use them, as their given colours are black and neon green! One striking duo, isn't it?
Here's my card:

Since these are original Japanese papers and patterns, I'm also entering this card into "Simon Says...Oriental" at Simon Says Challenge :)
Hahah, I'm interested what they'll have to say about it...

Thanks for stopping by!
