These are awsome butterflies.Does it have to be acetate sheets or can it be window sheets.

Where did you get the Acetate paper and what kind of paint is it paint or ink where did you get it?

[softdrea]

thank you ...... its beautiful.... going to try it out.

Where do I buy that acetate?

[APieceofCraftdotcom]

I ordered it directly from stampendous they have various thicknesses this is the thinnest. You can use transparencies as well from Office Max but they are pricey!

Oh I just put bling on it. OHP sheets work great! I don'tt know about the window sheets, but try it out and let me know how it works. I know permanent markers work well, but remember that permanent marker when colored over itself too many times will make streaky marks and pull up the previous mark. So when you use them color quickly and don't color back over dry ink or it will erase.

what can you use instead of acetate?

[APieceofCraftdotcom]

Oh my I should have said this in the video, but you can recycle plastic packaging. You know when you buy products and they are packed in the clear plastic that's hard to cut open? Well you can cut flatt square pieces of that and save it for this. All you do is cut out your shapes. Kepp in mind though that you can not heat that kind of plastic though, it melts quickly and has toxic fumes. You can also use the plastic packaging that your baking goods come in! Hope this helps!

Beautiful butterflies!! thanks for sharing :)

[ayellessnuffelhoek]

you can also do this kind of thing with the colored stazon inks... with a q-tip and colour your print with it... that's pretty neat too!

[vpedidoc]

Don't forget to save those acetate sheets that come with a lot of the embelishments. thanks for a great idea video.

[APieceofCraftdotcom]

Oh yeah I always save my plastic packaging!

Someone told me a few days ago that you can get it at office supply stores. So I'm going to check it out in the next couple of days. Thanks for sharing, Marion. Your attention to detail is what makes your vids so wonderful to watch! Beautiful work!

Yeah you can use transparencies, but keep in mind that they are not as clear and shiny! I hope you try it, it's so much fun!
