• Smoky Slate- 4 x 4"
• Basic White- 2" circle

Check out my card!

I made this fun floating acetate strip card!

I actually cut a window sheet to 4 x 4" & adhered 1/2" strips of various

colors of card stock directly onto it.

I then popped up the acetate with the Foam Adhesive Strips & 

adhered this to a 4 x 4" Basic White piece of card stock.

 

Note:  The 1/2" strips were all actually in my scrap box!!!

 

 Check out these 2 cards.

They are REVERSE of each other. 

The top one is layered onto Basic White card stock with a 

Basic Black layer under it & Basic Black words.

The bottom one is layered onto Basic Black card stock with a 

Basic White layer under it & Basic White words.

Which one do you like better?

The top one or the bottom one?

 I wish you could see this in person, as it is really cool 

with the 1/2" strips mounted onto the window sheet!

 This has the Basic Black words & layering.

 I colored the eggs & the basket with my Stampin' Blends & then added some 

Wink of Stella over the top of them for some added sparkle!

 

 This has the Basic White words & layering.

I used Adhesive Sheets with the die cut words.

How did I do it?

Put the Adhesive Sheet onto the back side of Basic White card stock.

Die cut the words.

Then removed the sheet off of the back of the words & stuck onto the card front.

Here are the supplies & measurements.
