Holy moly. Ok, I hearby admit I have never, not once, used acetate before on any card or scrapbook page. When I saw the challenge posted last night for Viva la Verve I started to panic. I don't even OWN any acetate! So, a quick trip to the scrapbook suply store (and a lot more money later than a piece of acetate) I now own acetate. I really liked the look of the acetate as the main card support, so I decided to give it a try.
The results are in... and I'm a fan! Thanks for helping to stretch me this week. I'm definitely going to give acetate another try!
Anyways, I just went to a scrapbook expo last weekend and picked up some amazing new dp and was so anxious to break it in! I popped up the main image on dimensionals. To make my cheapo dew drops from Michael's brown, I colored the bottoms with my copic markers! The sentiment is from the Michael's dollar bin as well.
Thanks for looking!

LOVE IT! I adore that you made the acetate the card base, it totally rocks! Your colors are beautiful, the browns are so rich looking and the ribbon is divine! Great job!
