A canvas that went wrong

For this canvas I used an Art deco background using tissue paper and pva glue I stuck it on my canvas it was still a bit damp when I added my second image I think it looks very ghastly what do you think

Lotstodo canvas swap

For this piece I sprayed the canvas with shimmer mists ma covered it with PVA glue then I printed the image onto tissue paper and again with pva I pasted the first image on when I dried it the ink came through so I printed another of the pictures on to Tissue paper and laid that on top with pva and it now has a shadow in the background which I like the effect

another card useing acetate

this card was made the same as the last one onley I choped a bit of the sideI must must clarify for those who have never printed on to acetate I use the printable type it is rough on one side that is the side to print on
For this card I used 2 A4 sheets of white card scored with a small margin to allow opening again I have used acetate backed with white card and gold card for mating and layering I also added a piece of gold down the margin and added a small piece of the coloured acetate lastly I added peel offs down the other side and added a bit of bling to the ends
Again I used acetate on a wite backgroundI mated and layerd it with copper blue and white then poped a peel foo round to finish the frame

Another card using acetate

All I did for this card is print the picture on to acetate and I also did the boarder at the same time then mounted them on white card and edged it with peel offs a very quick card

I think this is my favorite card
