well....THIS is my inspiration for sharing this card in the Inspiration Challenge.
However, I can't claim the design of this card. Impression Obsession did a demo at a LSS and this is the card I made that day. It is such a cool technique that I thought I should share it here. The image was stamped on acetate with Stazon Black. 'Splotches' of white acrylic paint was added on the back side of the acetate to give depth and dimension. On the actual base of the card we stamped clouds. Then added the ribbon and sentiment. I just love the depths the acrylic paint adds to the scene.
Photographing the acetate made it a little more muddy than it is in real life. Sorry about that.
Thanks for looking. I am hoping to have some time to play and make a 'new' card for the challenge later.

Joanne--when I first saw this card I thought it was a photograph on the front for the image! This is amazing! I love that technique! Just beautiful! TFS

Why make a new card when the one I'm looking at is absolutely fabulous, Joann. I'm the 27th person to favorite your card. I have no idea why because,not in my wildest dreams, would I ever be able to recreate such beauty!
