My order for Sheer Heaven® arrived. I have been experimenting with it to make transfers for my ATCs and cards. Sheer Heaven® is a finely etched plastic sheet, similar to vellum, but far more versatile. It can be colored with paints of all kinds and with pencils. The most fascinating use for me is the transfers. For some reason there is a wonderful reaction between 70% alcohol and the Sheer Heaven® in that it works perfectly as a transfer medium. Here I used the computer image from a scanned ATC as the transfer and stamped around that image with a hand-cut stamp. It is embossed with fine gold powder. I have dry embossed a rectangular margin about 3/8 inch from the card edges.
