Fresh Cuts

This is my first attempt to create an acrylic card. It doesn't fold flat so it was kind of hard to stamp on it with my black stazon ink and not smear the ink.

I stamped a couple of silhouette stamps and Wish Big sentiment on the outside of the Acrylic. I then attached some CTMH White Daisy Just Blooms Z1300 that I colored with my twinkling H20's and emblished with Robins Next - Flame baubles. I attached some buttons to the bottom.

The inside of the card is made with CTMH X7090B Silhouette paper. The image is stamped with SU - Fresh Cuts and colored a couple of the flowers with my Twinkling H20's I finished off with some black gingham ribbon.

Enjoy!
