This is the second card I mentioned in the previous post and I am not sure which colour combo I prefer. When I made this one I had just received the kitsch flamingo in the post and was trying different combos and I like this one, feels a bit ethereal which I suppose is fitting for a unicorn lol.
Ingredients
Image and Sentiment: Creative Stamping
Dies: scalloped frame from Gina marie Designs
Distress Oxides: Kitsch flamingo and speckled egg
Copics
Mane - RV14, 13, 11
Unicorn - BG72, 70, blender
I really enjoy making lots of different cards but one age range I find difficult are the 10-14 year old girls. They are into make-up and stuff but that feels too old and anything cute is a no-no so after using this image and getting a positive reaction I decided to use it again and I actually made two cards with it. The other one will be on here shortly.
I was pleased with how this turned out and I hope the recipient likes it too.

The last of the acetate cards at least for now and probably my favourite if i am being honest. I was going to make another flower version and goodness knows I have enough coloured flowers left to do it when I spotted this image in the pile and thought I wonder if that works and thankfully it did.
These cards were the first ones I made using the technique Jennifer McGuire showed for acetate fronted cards. I really enjoyed making them and I hope to make more again, I certainly have enough different coverplates to try a few more times without repeating the same pattern lol.
The images were in my pre coloured drawer and I think they deserved to be on a card. I would like to say that all the cards I made last year using the pre coloured images made a dent but it really hasn't lol.
I do think I will have a look through again and try to use some more....i see more splat cards in my blog feed in the future lol
I was in the acetate card front zone and I was looking at all my coverplates and this card just jumped into my head so of course I had to make it and I had the perfect person in mind too.
The stamps aren't mine but when my friend brought them to a crafty get together I knew I wanted them, on my next trip to florida I think they might fall into my basket lol.
The acetate cards were made after watching a jennifer mcguire video and they were so much fun to make, in fact I made four all different so expect to see the rest soon.
Yet another of the splat stencil cards, I was certainly heavily in the splat zone when I made this one. 2020 did see me take a style and just run with it and I definitely made more cards than any other year and it helped me to have something to keep my mind occupied.
I am sure others felt the same way too and having a hobby that keeps your mind active whilst being able to send the finished project to someone to make them smile is what kept me going through some pretty awful unprecedented days.
This image was coloured too many years ago to even remember, I did buy him in the Kenny K closing down sale and its another company that I miss, his style was so different and geared towards those guy cards everyone loves to make.
