Firstly I want to send Best Wishes and Hugs to Jennifer Swandells at Krafty Keepsakes who has been taken into hospital for complete rest, 'Get Better Soon Jen'
************************************************
Saturday means it is Allsorts Challenge day and the theme is 'Use Acetate' and has been set by Helene.
I embossed my acetate using a Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder, I have never done this before and I was really pleased with the effect. I put silver peel-off strips on the top and bottom edges to make it more visible.
Inside, very CAS, a decoupage mono flower image and I stamped 'Thinking of You' straight onto the card.
On the outside I glued a black bow and added a couple of my tags tied on with twine. I,m quite pleased with this one.
We have two sponsors this week -----

Hi Wendy
Lovely elegant card. I really must have a go with the acetate I bought a year ago but have never used.
Hope the lady in hospital is on the mend. x
Hi Wendy. Love the use of the acetate. Really good result. I've never embossed it myself so another thing to have a go of.
Hope the lady in question is ok.
Love Val x
wow that looks really cool! I do the same thing sometimes. but then go and paint over the inside of accetate with acryllic paint. Let it dry for a few second and then gently wipe the paint away. The inside of the circles fills with paint so you have clear accetate background with white spots =)
this is beautiful Ginny x
