WT111 - Clearly Fun

[Julia S]

This week it is time for anothe WT rerun! Today the Way's to Use it Challenge is to find ways to use Transparencies or Acetate sheets. Many of you have these from Stampin Up but if you do not have any on hand, I just use transparency sheets from Staples Business Depot. you can even steal the acetate liner from some packaging you may have...nothing wrong with recyling!

Tansparencies are great for layering, for windows, shadow boxes, smackin acetate and many other ideas! I can't wait to see what you all come up with!

Please remember to put WT111 in your keywords section and post a link back here so that we can all see your designs. If you wish to link a previous design, please limit it to one and make sure you make another design as well. The challenges are all about getting you to try something new! So get stamping!

Examples:

Trudee - Glittered Flowers

Julia - True Friend

Have a fabulous day and happy stamping!

This is a challenge, I've never used transparancies! I'll give it a try, should be interesting!

[fivekids7]

Yeah, I am the first one here, I think. I need to go shopping for this one, but sounds like a great challenge...

[Clownmom]

Your title is right -- using transparencies is Clearly Fun! I actually used a transparency yesterday in the sketch challenge. I will definitely do something when I get home from work tonight. Thanks, Julia -- this will be FUN!

[Wendybell]

Haven't use this in a looong time! Fun, fun!!

[DawnL]

oh...oh.. I know just what I'm gonna do Julia!! thanks...;)

[stampinupconsultan]

[papermoon04]

Sounds fun, I did this a few weeks ago for the first time. Got the thinking cap on.........

[Julesiana]

WOO HOO! I didn't have any last time! I do this time!!
FANTASTIC!!

[Doodlepie99]

Weeee, I got in early. I am going to my room NOW!!! (singing the I love acetate song)

[kimreid_stamper]

[Loree2000]

sounds cool! I'll have to dig some up!

[Stampin'4Fun]

Off to get some acetate! This should be intersting. I have never tried it. We shall see.

[bensarmom]

Thanks Julia,
Can't wait to play tonight!

[abmurray]

Yea! A new challenge for me to try! I don't have any Staz On, is there another ink I can use? I do have the Ancient Page....

[artlikefastfood]

Ooh, I made it to the first page! I did an ATC for a swap using acetate about a month ago. Here it is:

I'll have to do more with acetate later today or maybe tomorrow. It's my youngest DD's 5th birthday and my day to volunteer at my local crisis pregnancy center.

Thanks, Julia, for the challenge!

[Motherof6]

Oh, I love Window Sheets! I have to run my son to band this morning but will get it finished when I return!

[jessjean]

Oh, great challenge! I recently designed a clear card for my upcoming stamp a stack and fell in love with the look of acetate!! Here's the link:

I hope to get the chance to make some more soon. We're having a garage sale this afternoon and tomorrow though, so it may be a few days before I can actually play again... <sob>

Well here is my submission! I am on a pink roll this week after CC112, and wanted to make more cards to send RAKS. This one is a little shaker card, using a window sheet and pink ribbon confetti.

Thanks for looking! The picture is slightly fuzzy because it's early here and I don't have any good natural light yet!
Great challenge, Julia! I don't use window sheets very often -- I just don't think of it! Thanks!

[StampOwl]

I uploaded a card I made yesterday using transparencies. Here it is:

Friendship off casts from faux batik tech

I will try and get another made soon

[sherristampsalot]

I love transparencies! Here's one I did this past weekend using a sketch from Lauren's (mytime) blog. Her card had used a clear slide and I tried to mimic it with a transparency and white Stazon... TFL! And thanks for a fun challenge! I'll try to get something else done for it too!

I just made tihis card last week for Jen's Limited Supply Challenge.

I stamped the grasshopper with Olive stazon on acetate then I flipped it over (after the 1st one was dry) & stamped another grasshopper so that they are facing each other. This is an anniversary card for DH.

Hope to be able to come up with another one later. Thanks for the challenge Julia!

[beadn&stampn]

This should be fun! I have not done anything with these either! Thanks Julia...

Ann, you don't have to stamp ON the transparency. You can use it for a window, or do smackin acetate, etc.

Very cool challenge, Julia. Thanks.

[boilergrad]

Great challenge. I've only used transparencies for the front of fishbowls for my very punny fish stamp. So, I guess my personal challenge is to use the transparency for something different!

[Doodlepie99]

What a fun challenge! I had a good time trying somthing new with my friend acetate!

For Mo

I am glad I was able to jump in early, I have a busy day. Hopefully I can play again later!

I'll have to check my supplies but I think I can give this a whirl.

[Cammie]

Thanks for the challenge, Julia!

Here is my whacky card--

[reneejul1]

OOOOO - I also love using transparencies! Thanks Julia

[emmiestamps]

Here is a chocolate box I made a week or so ago. Now off to create something new!
Happy 50th Birthday

[SeattleStamper]

Good, I need a push to use these more often! Off to play...

[Karen Stamps!]

Ann/Dental Diva,
If you have heatproof overhead transparencies, you might be able to emboss on your acetate. I know the transparencies that go through printers and photocopiers get pretty hot. Might be worth doing a test run - just be careful!

Julia, great challenge! I hope to play this one. I love using acetate and this is a good excuse.

[Barbra1224]

Oh boy.. I just whipped a piece off the top of some clear stamps I got yesterday. Perfect.. how'd you know, Julia??

[markie's mom]

I used transparency to make this shaker card a while back...I must say I had a hard time finding it I had to go to Office Depot and get it over the counter...TFL!

[tx stamper]

Hmmm, getting on this now! Other than a shaker, I havent used window sheets--what a wonderful challange!

[allee's]

Thanks for the challenge, Julia! I've been avoiding transparencies since I retired from teaching, but I knew right where to find them when the challenge came up today!
