I have been wanting to do an acetate (clear) card for some time, but was struggling to come up with a design I liked. Well when the Happy Moments Stamp Set came out in the Sale-A-Bration catalogue I got a bit of a brain wave (it happens occasionally - lol).
This card uses some new Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up! called Kaleidoscope which is available now in the Summer Mini Catalogue. I have to say I wasn't entirely sure about this paper as it uses colours that I haven't really used, but I really liked the way this set turned out.
I used the parcel stamp from the Happy Moments stamp set, and stamped it on three different papers and pieced it together. As I had cut off the bow from the stamp (it was way to hard to cut out), I replaced it with some linen thread.
Some So Saffron ribbon finished the card perfectly.
I also made a pillow box from acetate and used the same design to decorate it.
It has turned out to be a beautiful day today in Melbourne, I hope you all are having a great day too - no matter what the weather is doing in your 'neck of the woods'.
These are really cool Alison! Can I have mine full of Lindor please - LOL.
