Hi Everyone, it's time for the
Group of Seven Crafters monthly technique. This month we are play with glitter on acetate. Yes we all have a few containers in the craft room that haven't seen the light of day in years. It makes some of the most beautiful cards but we all tend to avoid using it because of the clean up and having to wear it for the next few days 😀
Videos:
1) How to use Thermo Acetate with Glitter by tjaniga (9:41). *** You only need heat-proof acetate if you are heat embossing your line image. Otherwise, stamp in archival or permanent ink, flip acetate over, and add glue and glitter to back of image.
2) Glittery Acetate Cards by Crafi Potential (13:03). This version uses frames dies with acetate, glitter & glue. You can use regular acetate for this technique but heat emboss very carefully
Card 1 - Heat embossed image on acetate using Versafine Clair ink and clear Embossing powder, Magenta stamps.
Card 2 - Die cut backed with acetate and glitter poured in the cutouts. Die Cut Sizzix by Tim Holtz, Sentiment Stampers Anonymous by Tim Holtz.
I hope you pull out your old glitter containers and try the techniques with us.
