Acetate card

Hello bloggers,

Here is a card to show you today where I was trying out the famous partial die cut technique. Well, it happened partially and I had to improvise and finally with sparkly silver washi tape and a grey one as well, this is what turned out. You can see the acetate on the right which goes all the way inside. I have stuck the die cut leaf on the inside as well to cover up the glue behind the leaf on the top of the card. The acetate sheet which you can barely see was cut from a larger part of packaging. I agree, that I could have done a better job with the picture even though I thought I was very creative to use my daughter's sparkly grey top behind the photo. So much for that.

The sentiment is a stick on from a scrap booking store which closed down a few years ago. How I used to love going there. It was like a mini vacation for me - browsing without any agenda, talking to the staff and often attending their card making buffets.



I will participate in the following challenges:
