I {heart} Acetate
I love acetate and peek-a-boo cards and textured cardstock and grosgrain ribbon, but not really Valentine's Day. Perhaps that started when I wasn't the recipient of one of those folded small generic valentine's from my fourth grade crush... I guess I might be the only one to not get into this holiday but there are a lot of challenges (Embellish Magazine) and good causes (Cards for St. Jude) out there, so I thought that I could make a couple cards. I had acetate laying on my table from my last card and wanted to try another technique out with it. The faux silk technique was also a good reason to use all the leftover crumpled tissue paper from the holidays, and perfect for another try at Everything but the Kitchen Sink's current challenge. The design is pretty clean and simple, but sometimes that's ok when you want your technique, colors and textures to stand out.
Here's the Goods: Acetate, Bazill Textured Cardstock, SU Pretty in Pink Cardstock and Ink, Tissue Paper, Black Stazon Ink, Spray Adhesive, SU Love It Stamp Set, Grosgrain Ribbon, SU Chitchat Rubons, Fiskars Corner Rounder Punch, CM Circle Cutting System
