SEIZE THE BIRTHDAY ~ VELLUM

Hi friends, so glad you stopped by and I hope you will join us at Seize the Birthday Challenge where Ashwini is our hostess and her prompt is VELLUM!

our Special Party Guest is Julie go see what she has created for your inspiration.

I remembered watching a video from Jennifer McGuire all about vellum, (you can use a transparency paper if you wish!).  The one I am referring about can be seen HERE.

I used Concord & 9th:  Hello Lovely

PTI:  Big Hugs die 

PTI: Especially You (smaller sentiment)

copics, embossing powder, and Nuvo clear crystal drops

This was really fun, I hope you will give this a try and I will see you in the gallery!

Seize the Birthday with Vellum as our topping!

Welcome to another Seize the Birthday Challenge where we are looking for vellum on your card as our topping!

I die cut the vellum and then used a q-tip to apply my ink on the face of the vellum after white heat embossing it.  I did use a bit of colored pencils to add extra depth to some of the images like the berries and the leaves.  The flowers were done with two shades of ink.

I went around my card with the scor-pal to make some scoring lines to draw your eye in...

This is what I used:

PTI Fresh Bouquet

PTI Bigger Blooms (sentiment)

paper:  white and soft stone

 

There is a topping friends, but you can always make any kind of BIRTHDAY card too!

We all look forward to seeing your cards in the gallery!

Thanks for playing along!

Heart Hugs, friends!

JUGS with vellum

My friend is going to be a grandmother for the third time, her son and daughter-in-law is expecting their first child in August and I am invited to the shower.  My daughter needed a baby girl gift also, so we bought a cute outfit from Gymboree.

It is a little onsie with bottoms that have cute little giraffte faces on the feet!

The giraffe on the onsie is yellow, so I made the card to be like the outfit.

My vellum is striped and I layered it over a lovely lady pink cardstock.

I am entering this in the JUGS challenge also.

Heart Hugs, friends!
