Less is More Challenge week 11 Theme acetate

Well I saw these little monsters on digi stamp boutique today and could not resist them, I thought they would be perfect for the less is more challenge this week. As the theme was acetate I decided to put one of the little monsters behind a acetate window.


I printed my new digi monsters on to card and coloured them with  promarkers, then cut them out.


 I used the cuttlebug to cut the aperture in the card stock and again to cut out my acetate window which I stuck with photo glue and then pop a little monster behind. To glue my monster i just glued the edges that would not be seen through the window with the photo glue


I then stamped a Happy Birthday sentiment straight to the card and added some faux stitching around the window to finish.

    What a lovely clean card-very CAS. I like the way you have the monster behind the acetate, he looks like he is trying to get out! Great colouring too, so even, I thought they were printed.
