Papertrey Ink - Make It Monday - Vellum Overlays

Over at Papertrey Ink this week for their Make It Monday challenge Danielle Flanders has a video on Vellum Overlays.  I love the look of vellum, but really have never used it on my cards.  So I thought this would be a great challenge, since the vellum I bought has been sitting there for a couple of years now.  For my stamps I used PTI's Leave It Be stamp set.  I stamped two panels on white card stock.  The larger panel I covered completely with vellum to give it a more subtle look to the bold design.  The smaller panel I left uncovered.  For the sentiment I used the PTI Mini Blooms set by using a band of vellum that was embossed using Ranger Super Fine Detailing Embossing Powder.  The vellum was attached with brads, since I really didn't have a good place to put adhesive without it showing from the back.

I am entering this card in following challenges:

(My ought to use this more would be the vellum - it has been sitting there for years!)

Here is my card...
 


 Thanks for taking the time to stop by...

  1. Outstanding!! I love the look you created by layering vellum over the background but leaving it off the smaller frame! Brilliant! : )

  2. Oh wow! Love, love how the vellum created a soft look to the background and let the leaves shine in the front! It's gorgeous. Thank you so much for making a card for our challenge! :)
