Now I am excited by this LO.
It's an A4 transparency. I was inspired by a LO by Kim Ogden in For Keeps Issue 66, pg 74.
I had hassles originally with a thicker transparency. The ink from the printer wouldn't dry on it. Bugger I thought. There goes that idea.
Then 'light bulb' moment.
I have transparencies that I can print on so why don't lay one over the other and sandwich the photos in the middle. Now I can see all of the flourishes as well instead of the photos covering part of them up. I used a mini brad in 2 of the corners to hold both together and sewed the other corners. Just as an added interest I popped out a little mirror from a powder compact and 'viola' I have my LO done.
A bit of a trick to photograph it well. I leaned it up against a panel on my door in the morning light but I hope you can see the 'transparent' side of it.
And I LOVE it.
