About Me

My photo
I'm a retired primary school teacher, who started paper crafting in 2008, when I had a fancy to make my own Christmas cards. Since then, I have tried all sorts of techniques and styles - and I kind of like them all. I have been lucky enough to be on blog teams and large design teams and to do a bit of freelance demonstrating - and I love the challenge of working with different products. My crafting style is very varied - from junk journaling and art journaling, bookbinding and journal making, to quilting and patchwork - and of course I still make cards. This variety keeps me interested - and my crafty stash growing!! I'm always seeking inspiration for new projects.

Acetate Stamping

This is a card I made using Nellie's Choice: Idyllic Floral Scenes - IFSO53 - Tree on Shore. This is a beautiful stamp, but I wanted to extend it to create a larger image. 


I started by stamping onto one side of the acetate at one end using Midnight Blue Stazon.


I then flipped the acetate over, and stamped the image again, with the tree off the end of the acetate. 


To create a background, I used Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide, then stuck the acetate to the background using Crafter's Companion Stick and Stay.
