Vellum Embossing
Today’s card was inspired by one I saw somewhere on Pinterest (I think) that used the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder to create the focal image for a card. I liked the idea and needed to make a card for a special friend and decided to give it a try. I embossed Vellum card using the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder. I added Poppy Parade, Flirty Flamingo and Granny Apple Green ink to the back of the embossing folder using a Sponge Dauber. I attached the embossed and coloured Vellum to Basic White card and then Poppy Parade card.
The whole panel is attached to scored and folded Thick Basic White card. I stamped the greeting from the Peaceful Moments stamp set onto Basic White card using Poppy Parade ink.
I punched out the greeting using the Double Oval Punch. I added some leaves and a frame from the Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack to the card front before attaching the greeting to the centre of the fame using dimensionals. To decorate the inside of the card, I created another embossed and coloured Vellum panel. I attached the Vellum to Basic White card and then across the bottom of another Basic White panel.
I really love how soft and pretty this card turned out. I think I am going to have to give this a try in some different colours.
Bye for now,

To be honest Carol I cannot really remember but you don’t notice the adhesive as much behind the dense colour. I think that using Glue Dots is a great way to adhere Vellum because they don’t really show through, especially when coloured. Hope these hints work for you. Sorry I couldn’t be more specific.
