Crafting has taken a back seat, but I am determined to keep up with the gals at Jingle Belles for 2016. This fortnight is to use something CLEAR on your card.
I have two gallon-size Ziplock bags full of commercial card fronts from Christmas cards I have received over the past few years. I took one out that had the acetate snow/snowflake panel. The card was originally quite large; approximately 6x8. I removed the acetate panel and the metallic "Season's Greetings" from the base of the card. I cut the base card into pieces (those background shiny snowflakes and the dry embossed suede paper.) The background was originally one layer, but I rearranged my cut pieces into layers and created a standard A2 card (4.25" x 5.5").
The dry-embossed suede part is quite stunning in real life, but my photography skills are lacking and I am not doing it justice.
I hope to see you over at Jingle Belles with your CLEAR-ly awesome creation.
Happy Tuesday!
