Twice in one day! I must be on a roll hehehe! Well I've played around a lot using the fairy image I coloured to create this card. A good few mistakes, mainly due to lack of concentration as when I was stamping around the frame, my 8 year old granddaughter arrived and on boy! Can she talk for England! To create this card I took an 8x8 (inch) card blank with scalloped edges and cute the front, centre out of the card. 1 and half inches from folded side and 1 inch top and bottom. Then I placed a piece of acetate (heatable) over the 'gap'. The background (inside of the card I used a royalty free backing paper, wallpaper for tablets, laptops etc..) I glued the fairy onto the matt and layered card (Yellow card under the background).
Next I stamped onto the acetate using perfect medium by Ranger, covered with white detail embossing powder, setting the powder with a heat gun. Hair dryer's do not work for this as they will just blow the very fine powders everywhere!
Finally, I measured and cut a frame to hide the gluing of the acetate (well actually it was the super sticky red tape!) Before sticking to the card I again stamped using perfect medium, this time using blue embossing powder to take away from the bright yellow. As I said, a lot of mistakes happened creating this card but determined next time to learn from my mistakes (yeah right lol)
