So I decided to make an ATC inspired by all the lovely colours in the photo. I really hope you can see the lovely sheen of colours behind the acetate, I'm not sure the photo captures it well enough.
Here's how I made it: I stamped part of the Stampington stamp onto acetate using Staz-on and left aside. When it was dry I used a technique I saw in Craft Stamper to create this lovely effect on the other side of the acetate. I puddled Klear polish onto the acetate and swirled it around a bit, then I added Wild Plum alcohol ink and gold Pearl Ex and swirled around more. Then I laid onto the acetate some scrunched up tissue paper to absorb all the liquid but made sure all the tissue paper is wet. Then I left to dry for several hours. I then made an ATC blank using gorgeous pink mirror card and laid some yellow and blue scraps on top. Finally I cut down the acetate to size, stuck it on the blank using Spray Mount and added a flower gem.
Crafty stash used: Stamp (Stampington); Acetate; Tissue paper; Alcohol ink (Ranger); Pearl Ex; Klear polish; Assorted cardstock; Gem (Joanna Sheen)
