This is for The Flower Challenge
When we did our acetate challenge at CAS Mix Up in March,
I saw some cards where the acetate had been dry embossed.
I loved the look!
So this was a perfect opportunity to try it myself.
It was so easy and I used a piece of acetate from a stamp set.
No additional purchase required!
I found this peony in my UFO box. It had been embossed and colored.
I have no recollection of what I used to color it. Sorry.
I do know that water was involved.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!
