This Time it's Just for You

So you're  back too see my other Acetate Card?
You then know it is for  the CAS Mix Up Challenge
oops!
Before I go any further I just noticed I didn't add the
Graphics to my first Acetate card so off to fix it.
Okay! here we go...
I thought I would once again try something a 
little different with the Acetate
and it's pretty simple!
I delved into my bits box and found
some smooched (again) oxide inked paper
and cut out 2 dies (unknown) then
repeated with Acetate. I embossed
all 4 die cuts with Swiss Dots to add
a bit of texture. When I glued the Acetate
I did so slightly to the side.
My card base is cream and added a strip of
kraft paper as a backing for my dies.
Finished with a sentiment from Inspired by Stamping,
 a tiny Waffle Flower bow, a few gems and
corner rounding.
My Mix is Acetate, die cutting, watercolour smooching,
stamping and dry embossing.



Thanks once again for dropping in.
I'm off for some Sister Time for a long week end
so no crafting. But I do get to spend up
at a craft store as I have a Gift Voucher
she gave me for Christmas. Yay!

Oh! you will see a scheduled post
as Saturday is Just Us Girls Challenge Day.
It's something very different for me.

Till next time - Cherrio

  1. The acetate top layer of your card really gives it so much shine and lets all the gorgeous colour from your smooshed layer show through. Great design Ina! Thanks for sharing with us again at CAS Mix Up!! xx

  10. Such clever use of the acetate, Ina! It makes the flowers really pop and seems to intensify the colour along with adding great shine!

  12. Love the layering of the smooshed flowers and the acetate ones - such pretty colours in the smooshing and then great shine from the acetate. It looks great with the panel of kraft cs. Thanks so much for joining us at CAS Mix Up.

  13. Such a smart approach on those flowers, I bet the dry embossing must have added lots of texture. Love the detail on the sentiment to recall the flower colour, along with the 3 gems.
    Thanks for joining us at CAS Mix Up!
