Hi everyone! Two weeks ago Christi challenged the Prettie Girls to use vellum on their cards! Well, I have some vellum and I NEVER use it. Frankly, I just don't know how to use it!! So thank you, Christi, for making me try something out of my comfort zone!!
I inked up a much neglected set from Paper Pretties called Right On Par. I needed a card for my Uncle and he golfs.....so you get the picture! LOL! I colored Luke in with Copics, cut him out with my Oval Nestabilities and did some free handed piercing around him. He is popped up on dimensionals over a piece of Brocade Blue that was cut out with the Labels Two Nestabilites. Did you see my vellum? My friend,Julie, always dry embosses her vellum, so that's what I did here. I ran the strip of vellum underneath the sentiment through my Cuttlebug using the Houndstooth Embossing Folder. I added the sentiment, some brads and a little piercing around the perimeter of the card. Simple and clean.....
Don't forget to check out what the rest of the Prettie's did with this challenge!
