You can play around with the new Acetate Sheets in different ways for a different look to your cards and projects like on this Mini Pizza Box and Card With Golden Garden Acetate. These acetate sheets are in the Fine Art Floral Suite.

After making this card the other day, I used a scrap piece of the Golden Garden Specialty Designer Acetate Sheets on this small gift card. You don’t have to only use it with the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper. You can use it on its own over a piece of cardstock. For this card, I just used a piece of Basic White Cardstock for the card base and adhered the acetate sheet on the front. The greeting is in the Art Gallery Stamp Set in the Suite. It is just stamped on white and layered on a piece of Gold Foil. The ribbon tied around the side is the 3/8″ Fine Art Ribbon.

Here are some things to know about the acetate sheets! On the backside of sheet, the backside of the gold design is silver! So you can use whichever color you like. There is also a protective plastic sheet on the backside of the acetate, on the silver side, so be sure to remove that before using. As for how to adhere the sheets to your card or project, you may be able to hide the adhesive underneath some other element on your card, such as under the greeting or under the ribbon. Some people are using Mini Glue Dots and hiding them under whatever they can. I chose to use teeny tiny dots of the Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Have a piece of scrap nearby so you can squeeze out a bit of glue to make sure it won’t pour out when you are trying to use really small dots! I just put the tiny dots under the widest parts of the gold design to try to hide it.

For something different I put together a Mini Pizza Box and added a piece of the Golden Garden Acetate to the top of the box. I used the shiny side for the outside this time. As I was assembling the box, I thought it felt a lot thicker and harder to fold for some reason! Well, the reason was revealed when a second box fell apart from the one box I thought I was working with. I was trying to crease two boxes stuck together and thought I only had one!!

For the pizza box, after adhering the acetate to the top of the box with teeny tiny dots of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I actually can see the glue that oozed out from under the spot when I placed it, but honestly, no one else will even notice it. I can see it because I’m looking for it, but it doesn’t really show. I also added strips of Gold Foil around all four sides. The greeting is also in the Art Gallery Stamp Set and is die-cut with a die in the Floral Gallery Dies, layered on a piece of Gold Foil. Then I just tied a piece of the 3/8″ Fine Art Ribbon around the box, which holds the lid closed and also is an embellishment. This is an easy way to make a little box for a gift, treat, or maybe some notecards or a cookie inside!
