CARD USING VELLUM


While our group gathered in Des Moines the middle of June, one of my friends (Kris) was making cards by using beautiful tulip vellum paper on the front of the card. They were all gorgeous! I had long forgotten that I had some printed vellum sheets stashed away. When I was looking for a colored sheet of vellum for another project, I ran across the patterned vellum sheets.

From this sheet of vellum I was able to get three very pretty cuts to put on the front of cards. This one leaves me the option of being able to use appropriate ink and stamping a sentiment in the upper left hand corner, but I do believe I will just leave well enough alone. I'd hate to have the ink smear.

I wish I could remember where I got this beautiful vellum. Let me know what you think.

Thanks for stopping by!
