This too can give some lovely effects.
Take a sheet of greaseproof paper and lay it on the ironing board. then lay clear plastic on top of that (I use mailing sleeves) Take some coloured plastic bags (thinner ones are best) and cut them in bits and scatter a selectionof coloured bits on the plastic in a random pattern, cover with another layer of clear plastic and another sheet of greaseproof paper then iron with a warm iron.. the plastics fuse together and can be used in various ways. If you have an aperture card you can cut a matching aperture in the backing bit and sandwich this between the two. When stood up light shines through giving a lovely stained glass effect.

BB, I'd quite forgotten you'd told us about this some time ago, so a good reminder.

I seem to remember you posted an example, do you still have it? It's nice to know what I'm aiming for.

I should still have it in my pictures folder: I'll have a trawl through and see if I can find it.

That was the see through one. These are some I did with the backing intact - but you can do it this way and have embellishments stuck on the backing so they show through clear parts of the plastic.

That top one looks like clear boiled sweets - made my mouth water.
