Good Morning everyone.
Thank you for all your amazing comments on my butterfly card.
Today is a Chrismtas card using the lovely robin paper cut die, you will be sick of seeing acetate i know but these are acetate cards again😊 - ive lined them with colourful inserts and they are totally flat for posting - very rare for me!
6x6 snowfall acetate card blank. From white pearl cardstock i die cut the robins, i coloured with with oxide inks - vintage photo & campfire for the robins and then pistachio around them. I added sizzix biodegrable glitter to the robins tummy's. Stamped a greeting and then glued the panel to the front of my acetate card. I then raided my very old paper stash and found some suitable for the backgrounds to my robins to use for the inserts.
Trying to show the shine of the glitter, i also added stickles to the mistletoe. Looking at this photo reminds me that i added black acrylic paint to the back of the robin's eyes, once the robins were glued to the acetate i used a black paint pen and added a little dot to the inside of the acetate where the eyes are.
and version 2 - made the same way just a different sentiment & paper for the insert. I made several of these as ideal for batch making
Items Used:
Creative expressions paper cuts die 'under the mistletoe'
Hunkydory snowfall acetate
Various sentiment stamps
Various patterned papers
Sizzix biodegradable glitter 'caramel toffee 663870'
Tim Holtz oxide inks - cracked pistachio, crackling campfire, vintage photo
White pearl cardstock
Ranger stickles 'crystal'
