It is that time again! This month’s challenge was to use acetate (clear transprancy). I got the idea for my card a few weeks ago, but due to summer I was not able to put it together untill today. It was a challenge. I forgot how long it takes ink to dry on acetate (so please forgive an smudges). I will probably remake this when I get the chance. Also any hints on attaching acetate? (also please forgive any visible tape).

One of the challenges at the Riley PJ party was to use stars. I used brads for my stars. I believe they may be Making Memories. The blue paper is also unknown, but I think it is probably from Anchor Paper in their bulk section. It is shimmery and I love it!! I wish I had more then one piece of it.
