Default Wax paper instead of acetate for faux postage-it works!
After getting inspired to try the faux postage technique, and not wanting to wait till I could go out and get acetate for the mask, I tried WAX PAPER and it worked great!! Side benefit - it was really easy to cut with my exacto knife because it's so thin (not much pressure needed).

Default faux postage
You can also use vellum, and it works great too! I was in a hurry to try the technique too, so I had to improvise.
