This class, Clear and Sheer, shows different techniques for attaching and incorporating acetate and vellum in your cards.
This card is the first card I made from this class, although it is from Day 4. I used an embossing folder with my vellum, and got a really nice design. This is the second try, and my first try, while really cute, had several areas that cut all the way through the vellum.
I embossed my 4.5 inch by 5.5 inch piece of vellum with a Lifestyle Crafts GooseBumpz folder called Whimsy. After trimming off the edges I was left with a 4 inch by 5 inch piece of embossed vellum, which I cut in half lengthwise.
I took a 5.25 by 4 inch piece of yellow striped card stock, and added a 4 by 3.75 inch of designer paper on top, having the top edges even. I then folded over the top edge of the vellum and adhered it to the back (an idea from Day 1), leaving the bottom loose. I then stamped Smile on a scrap piece of white card stock, layered it on a scrap from the yellow striped, and adhered it to the front of the card with foam tape for some dimension.
When I find my scalloped border punch, I'm going to add a small light green border to the bottom of the red flowered paper to finish the card. Unfortunately, I am in the midst of rearranging my craft room (a several month long project), and currently can not find my border punches. (On the other hand, I have found several other tools that have gone missing over the last several years...and a few duplicates).
