Sending Hugs

 Hello bloggers! For today's card, I created a caught in crystal background.  I used Cosmic Lacquer on a piece of clear acetate.  I used my finger to spread it all over the acetate, then sprinkled Midnight Blue Pixie Powders all over it.   I used  my finger again to mix all the powder with the clear lacquer and spread it all across the acetate.  I scrunched up a piece of white tissue, then opened it back up, but kept the wrinkles and laid it on top of the piece.  I used a wad of kitchen roll to tamp down the tissue paper then set it aside to dry overnight.  Once dry, I backed it with a piece of white card (that makes the colour pop).  I cut the Button Flower Floral Panel in white and nipped the leaves out of the frame.   I glued it to the left side of the card, then made a flower using the Magnolia Corner flowers.  I glued it at the bottom of the leaves, then added some leaves from the Pinwheel Floral die set below it.  I cut the side view butterfly from the Magical Butterflies set and glued it to the upper right corner.  I cut the butterfly again and added another wing to make it look more dimensional.   I cut the Sending Hugs sentiment in black and glued it onto the shadow backing cut in white.  I glued the sentiment in the right corner.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2'  x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x
