Hi there! I’ve been on a retro kick…and just had to break out my glitter and acetate to go along with it!
Glitter just seems to be the perfect touch on holiday cards…and for these cards I used some suede glitter that is some pretty fun stuff…love the velvety texture look it gives in real life!

My first card features three images…
~It Came Without Ribbons which I stamped in black ink and popped up for some dimension.
~Ornament Bunch which I stamped with Stazon on acetate. I then applied glue and glitters to the back of the acetate. Once dry, I popped my acetate up with foam tape hidden behind the ornaments and snowflake. It is a floating acetate window, and the shadows it casts are fun!
~Ornaments ATC which I embossed with silver detail embossing powder.
My second card features the Retro Holiday Tag, which I stamped in Stazon ink on Acetate. I glittered the back and used it to frame the Retro Christmas Cat. I stamped the cat on the cardstock and then did up his hat in glitter and acetate as well. The sentiment is from the Clearly Beautiful Ornament 2 Set.
Last, but not least I used the same frame with a different color scheme and a different sentiment from the Clearly Beautiful Ornaments 2 set. I stamped Kitty in Balloon on acetate and glittered it up, popping it up on foam tape for a floating effect as well.
