This card was tricky to photograph. The teal mat, clouds, and airplanes are mounted on a piece of clear acetate. The orange mat is mounted underneath on the chevron paper but when it is closed they match up so the orange mat makes an outline shadow for the the teal mat.
It was made for a baby shower for a little boy. I chose to forgo a sentiment and instead made the formation of planes. The orange mat was just the right size for a handwritten note.
I need to make more cards with this technique as it was fun to make and the outcome is fun as well.
Thanks for looking.

Great card ~ love your results as I'm sure it will be a hit at the baby shower. Acetate card fronts are a challenge for me. Guess I should tackle that once in a while. : )
