Challenge Chicks #8-Clear Sheets

This weeks challenge chicks challenge is to use the clear card sheets that are available from Cornish Heritage Farms.

These sheets are awesome! They are much thinker than the acetate sheets from the office store so you can actually use them as a card base like I did for this card. You can learn more about them in the product spotlight.

I never used to use clear sheets in my cardmaking because I wasn't sure what to do with them but I am addicted now!
