Ch 1: Sue's technique challenge - using transparency.

This month my challenge to everyone is to use a transparency!
This item will preferably be something you have made yourself, either by stamping or printing with your computer onto a transparency sheet. You could also use rub-ons (thanks Becci!)

In addition to your transparency, you are also going to need to include the following criteria:
- something green
- the word "happy" (either in your title or journalling) and
- at least 2 bows

If making your own transparency isn't something you have done before, never fear...it's very easy!
If you are going to make one by stamping, you will need "Staz On" ink (or an equivalent solvent ink), as otherwise it won't dry. If you are going to make one using a printer, just make sure you buy the right transparency sheet to suit your printer (eg, ink / laser). You can usually buy single sheets from your newsagent for about $1.
I have also been reminded by fellow DT member Kathie, that there are many similar materials that can be used for stamping, not just transparency sheets. Try the plastic out of toy packaging windows or look in your next box of chocolates (one brand uses similar plastic to keep the choccies separated). Its just a matter of looking!
If you are really struggling with making your own, I will allow a "store bought" transparency, but please TRY to use something homemade, as that is what the spirit of this challenge is all about! Challenge 1: Sue's Technique Challenge Icon_wink


Here is my example layout for you...

Do you have any ziplock bags or anything like that?? They are transparent!! And you don't have to have staz-on ink, you can draw with a texta, use rub-ons, or even paint!! It doesn't matter what you actually use, as long as it is transparent!! Smile

Aura - Like Vicki said, there are many ways you can improvise! You could even try using the dreaded "window" from a bill envelope and just pop some rub-ons onto it! It doesnt have to be anything too big or too technical, I just wanted everyone to try something they might not usually do! Challenge 1: Sue's Technique Challenge Icon_biggrin

Aura, check out the all clear packaging in your pantry, or have you got anything
clear cellophane & pop some rub ons on to that maybe Smile

Aura have you got a newsagents near you, they usually sell the sheets too. Or even ask at the local school. They'd use them for overheads.

Sneaky Kathie, think you've got a simialr idea that I had.

Don't be to hard on yourself Aura, I am sure everyone here will tell you that they learn new things from other scrappers all the time, I know I do! I am always seeing things and wondering why I didn't think of it myself... Challenge 1: Sue's Technique Challenge Icon_rolleyes
Don't worry, the next time you have a brilliant idea, we'll all be nicking it from you!
