CAS Mix Up March Challenge - beautiful day

Have you tried the Faux Stained Glass technique featured in this month's CAS Mix Up Challenge?
I tried another way of making the Faux Stained Glass look using a piece of acetate today. Thanks, Joanna, for hosting this fun challenge this month!


   


Here's my card:


Using Faux Stained Glass Technique, Die-cutting, Heat-embossing, Alcohol Inks, and Stamping


[How I made the card]
1. Blend Alcohol Inks on a piece of Yupo paper.


2. Heat-embossed the butterfly on a piece of acetate in black.
3. Die-cut the front panel and then die-cut the butterfly outline from the panel.
4. Heat-embossed the sentiment in black.
5. Attached the heat-embossed acetate to the back of the front panel and popped up the front panel on the card base with foam tape.
6. Glued the sequins onto the front panel.





You have until March 24th to link up your card here. I hope you'll join the fun!
