I started with the plastic bag challenge piece fusing the layers per the video and appyling 3 colors of acrylic paint. On my card base I randomly stamped & embossed the clock face. I then stamped & embossed the saying on a piece of vellum, tore around the entire edge and finally applied a gold edge with metallic paint pen. after adhering the 1st three layers, I felt it need some other element so after digging throught drawers full of STUFF. I came across a small piece of Shrink plastic (at least 30 years old) BINGO!! I stamped my large umbrella guy in black cut around it and proceeded to shrink It to size with my heat gun. Good thing I had just enough plastic to try a second time cause the first one rolled into a tight little ball never to come undone.. LOL Stuck on my now mini umbrella guy with hot glue . . .Whew - I'm done!

What amazing texture on the bag...it looks a bit like those weathered wood techniques. The little shrink plastic man was a great addition. I usually hold a knitting needle parallel to my surface a liitle above the plastic to avoid that dreaded curl and fuse!!
