June Blog Hop Card - Acetate



I used the Circle Nestabilities to cut out an aperture from the square card and then cut a smaller scalloped circle from the same card stock, using white card I cut out a matching plain circle.
I stamped all over the front of the card with spring moss ink using the spiral bouquet stamps then using the same stamp set I added a floral design to the white circle.

I cut a piece of acetate 1 mm smaller than the card and added it behind the aperture, I then added the centre circles and cut out another white circle stamped the same as the first and added it to the inside to hide the glue that was holding the front circle onto the acetate.
I finished the card by adding a few pearls some stickles glitter and a satin ribbon.

What a great way to use your nestabilities in combo with transparencies. I'm definately going to have to try this technique.
