Welcome to another Stampotique Designer's Challenge, and this week *I* am the happy hostess! I've challenged everyone to use transparent elements on their projects! Here's what I came up with:
I used some transparency sheets I've had in my stash forever. After die-cutting, I added Distress Paint to the acetate, spritzed with water and squeezed together with a die-cut piece of vintage book page. The technique I used was found on Splitcoaststampers. The image, Roc's Angel, was stamped, colored & trimmed, then attached to the card. I love the "Sometimes" message - so awesome. Washi tape, sequins & Stickles finish it up.
I hope you'll pull out something clear - acetate, perspex, glass - whatever! And join us this week at the Stampotique Designer's Challenge!

People complain that the volunteers at Happy Dragon get first dibs on the
good stuff. That is sort of true but it's only because we're there all the
time...
