Acetate Birthday Card

It's time for another JUGS Saturday Challenge.  The technique  chosen is to use acetate on your card. This means making a clear card or using it as an accent. 

Alicia Weiman's birthday was last Wednesday so I want to wish her a  HAPPY BELATED BIRTDAY.  I created a card in honor of her birthday.   It is entirely created on the front of the acetate card.  The first picture above shows it with a liner so you can see the design better, and the second picture shows it without the liner.

I used rub-ons for the flourish, small butterflies and flowers.  The large butterfly (Gina K Designs) was white embossed on vellum and colored on the back with a marker.  It was attached to the acetate, just on the body, so the wings are dimensional.  I created a small envelope out of vellum.  Additional rub-ons were added on it.  The Happy Birthday greeting (GKD) was stamped in black and cut out with a small square Nestability then inserted in the envelope. A few pearls and a bow were added to complete the top of the card.  I created an "inside" insert using white card stock.  Attached to the front is a piece of pink Basic Grey design paper.  I used a Martha Stewart punch to create a border along the bottom.  

I posted another project using a clear acetate pillow box three posts down called "Snowmen Melt Your Heart". 

I am enjoying being a Guest Designer for JUGS this month.  Hope you will check back next Saturday for another great Challenge.
