Stamping on acetate (plastic sheet)

I wanted to try this technique that I think it's cool: stamping on acetate (or plastic sheet);
Plus I love to recycle and here you can recycle your acrylic packaging!
I decided to make an aquarium card for father day;
So as I don't have Stazon ink I stamped my hero arts fishes stamps with embossing ink and embossed them with black embossing powder.
I was a bit worry because my plastic was waving under the heat gun, but finally it gives a cool effect and look to the card!
For the background I choose a blue dots paper from Making memories and a blue pearl paper;
And then I attached the acrylic on the papers with some (Queen and Co) Brads.
I really like how my little aquarium card turns out!:





You can find some cool youtube videos on how to stamp on acetate...

Cardmaking techniques

There is so many different cardmaking techniques ; I love discovering and trying them all!

Here is a card I made with 2 techniques by Gina K Designs that I saw on Stamp tv (This is one of my favorite sites to learn new techniques):

- Distressed embossed patterned paper
and
- Coloring with gamsol (I love this product!)

I finally used one of my old stamp! It's funny how sometimes you buy something because you find it pretty but never have a chance to use it!...
Do your spring cleaning and use those old supplies and stamps that you've stored for a long time!...




I added some glitter on the wings:
