This week's challenge on the
Less is More Challenge blog is to use acetate - A lot of people are intimidated by acetate but it can be lots of fun. One way I like to use it is as an overlay on the front of a card. It can be tricky to attach since you can see any adhesive used so having the scalloped layer on top is an easy way to hide it.
Have you ever embosssed acetate? Super easy technique with a lot of presence! It is really hard to get a good picture of this technique but it looks so cool in real life. Washi tape added the fun stripes at the top and bottom and also afforded me the opportunity to adhere the panel at the bottom of the card too! All supplies are from
A Muse|Studio!!
Stamp sets - Friend to Friend, Ornate Elements; Washi tape; Woodgrain Embossing Plate; Medium Scallop die; Ocean ink
