I wanted to make a ice skating card to remind my childhood, the lakes were frozen and we could skate on them, I've embossed the acetate and glued them behind the die cut apertures, I used metallic mirror paper for the floor to make it look like ice, added the icy borders and punched out 2 doves, I've die cut the skaters and glued iron thread between two layers made holes in the bottom and glued the iron thread under the bottom recovered with blue card stock.
I had fun to make this and feel a bit nostalgique now.

What a fabulous card - and a wonderful story behind it too. Last time I was ice skating, it was at the Natural History Museum in London, I should have sized up on the skates and when I fell over, TWO young people came over immediately to help me up in my advanced years!! The fall wasn't as sore as the bruised ego. Or the feet in those skates!!
