Acetate Card Challenge


Tonight I have made a card for Rainbow Lady's first challenge which was to use acetate somewhere in your creation. I actually started off by stamping a piece of acetate with Versamark using a stamp from Elusive Images Damask Squares set and heat embossing it in purple. The lady with a fan stamp (Artkure) is embossed in gold and watercoloured.


The main card is purple mirror card embossed with the Cuttlebug. Finally I stuck the embossed acetate onto a piece of green mirror card, mounted it along the bottom of the card with foam tape and threaded the pearl rope through the corner of my card punched out with a rose corner punch.
