Charisma - Use Acetate

Morning all! 

This weeks challenge at Charisma is Use Acetate, one of my favourite challenges as I really should use it more, I've got so many lovely designs which never see the light of day!!

This was a sheet of Kanban acetate with a silver embossed design, I cut a 6x6 card blank in half and stuck the missing piece back on, but in the acetate, if that makes sense!!

The sentiment is a woodware stamp, ribbon from stash and the butterflies are MS punch

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Country View challenges - Butterflies (ends 30/4)
