Polished Acetate by Vada

Vada is the queen of Polished Acetate (April 2007 issue of the Technique Junkie Newsletter). This card proves it! Vada's creation for the TJ Holiday Blogstravaganza uses a strip of Polished Acetate to show off the pretty snow-bound stamps from Paperbag Studious and Hero Arts. She also punched the snowflakes from the acetate, using the new snowflake die from Spellbinders. The Gem Stones and new punch are from Martha Stewart.

Thanks for playing, Vada, your card is gorgeous!
