So my white gel pen had dried up, which I was totally bummed out, so I thought I would try my white paint pen. Unfortunately, it soaks completely in the paper! So I thought that pen was a total loss, until I tested it on acetate, and it was bright white and dries and does NOT smear! AWESOME! So had to make a card where I could use my paint pen on the acetate and here it is. I've had this spiderweb paper for a couple years, and that was the last of it. I used the paint pen to extend the web onto the acetate, and I think it looks pretty cool! Yeah, I know spiders don't really say "boo," but they it seems like they do to me because they always pop out of nowhere and scare the daylights out of me!

So I'm confused, did you hand draw the webs on the acetate or do a transfer type thing? You say something about extending the paper by using the pen(?) I can't figure out what it is that your saying you did exactly. I know it's just me, my mind is moody after this week but I LOVE the card it's awesome! I have to say acetate is the one type of card that intimidates me. I have everything to make more than a few of them but everytime I get pumped to try one I sit down and stare and stare untill I give up, put it all away and make a traditional card. Hehe
