Love This Acetate Card

You know how sometimes you see a project in your head? Well this one turned out better then I dreamed.
I used an A2 card base from Creative Cuts and More.
The only difference is a had this one cut in Acetate!

I started by putting the card through my Big Shot with the Swiss Dots embossing folder. I Stamped a Lablanche stamp on white card stock and colored lightly with Copic markers.
I matted on black and then white card stock again.
The image was centered on the Acetate base with room showing around the edges(would hate to cover up the entire card).
I attached a small sentiment from my stash with a yummy flower and leaves. All it needed was a little orange check ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon to embellish.
One last touch was to use a Krylon gold marker to outline the card base, I really like how it gives a outline to the card design.

Sure hope you pop into Creative Cuts and More and check out the many card bases available-you might even try an acetate product.

  1. What a gorgeous card! I have never seen the acetate card bases. Are those thicker than what a clear overhead projector acetate sheet would be? I've still got a ton of those left over from my song-leader days at church.
