Crop Challenge | Transparent Elements With Jamie Waters

I'd love to see how you use the phrase acetates from your Confidant kit or any other phrases you have in your stash like these! I put mine over my photo, as I loved the scenery peeking through the title. I've seen others cut theirs up, and use on top of patterned papers.

I'd love to challenge you to make a scrapbook page with a transparent element taking center stage! When you complete this challenge, upload it to the member gallery and leave a link to your project in the comments below. See ALL of the crop challenges here.

Those transparent words are perfect for someone like me, who is terrible at titles.
