As most people know, it is very difficult to photograph acetate and metallic colours, but I hope you can get the idea from my pics. I began by dropping some alcohol inks on the acetate sheet, spritzing with alcohol and then letting it dry. For the first card I die cut the bird.The background has been dry embossed and then I randomly swiped versamark ink over the raised part and gold embossed. Next I constructed the shaker. I used glue tape to adhere the bird and branch. To finish I stamped the sentiment and adhered it on top of the window. I nearly added swquins, but reminded myself this was a CAS card(: I'm entering the following challenges:-    |

Acetate, Alcohol Ink and an Embossing Folder
I decided to make another card for the CAS Mix Up Challenge (2nd Birthday) Challenge and instead of one card, I ended up with a Twofer!
Great effect with the bird on your first acetate card. Love the pretty colours, the dry embossing and then making it into a shaker.....Stunning! The dry embossing looks fabulous too on your second card along with all that crisp white card. Thank you so much for joining in the birthday celebrations and the acetate challenge at CAS Mix Up again x
