This month is to make something using acetate, I chose to use vinyl because it is much thicker and its glossy on both sides.  When making a card with acetate/vinyl I always cut two of everything, why? because you do not want your tape marks to show.  So no matter what way you look at the card, it looks polished.  I tried to upload more pictures to show how I made the card step by step, but I am having blogger problems, so I will have to write a lot instead of show you. Here you can see a side profile of the card.  I did a gate-fold card.  I have to be really creative when using vinyl because everything kind of need to be hidden.  So on the inside I have a circle and then layered on top of the lavender moon circle, I got some aqua mist paper, scored it and then laid a smaller circle nestabilitie a little over the score line, so I have a little circle card.  Inside this little circle card is where I will put my hand written note/message.

getting knotty and vinyl coffee

Todays Limited Supplies challenge WSC172, is about using knots on your cards.  Hello so me, so easy peasy.  Since all of my Cosmo Cricket Honey Pie paper is still out, I just kind of made a card similar to the one I made yesterday.  I used Aqua Mist paper and ribbon, because it matches the CC paper perfectly.  The stamp set is from PTI's Pond Life. The next card I used Flourishes new line of stamps called Stamp Simply and this set is called Coffee with Friends.  I love it...I am a coffee lover, so I am happy to have this set.  I used vinyl for the card base.  It is thicker than acetate so it stands up very nicely.  I paper pieced the coffee cups using BasicGrey's Infuse line of 6x6 paper.  The ribbon is from May Arts.  I hope everyone has a great Friday!
