What's Up Wednesday ~ Pretty Vellum Look

What's up this Wednesday is a pretty card using Vellum as a panel for a soft look. The Vellum is translucent rather than see-through and creates a pretty and soft look in your design. This card was inspired by Lisa Stenz with a few of my own twists. 

I started with a 4.5" x 5.5" top fold card base in white. I wanted a clean and crisp look to counter the pastel pink. I cute 1" off the bottom front, then cut another 2.25" off. I saved the 1" piece for attaching later. The 2.25" piece was used for die cutting the flowers.

Using the Fragrant Layers Bundle (stamps & dies) I die cut the flower outline and trimmed off the ends. The tip and bottom border were glued to the 3" x 4.25" piece of Vellum then to the card base and 1" piece. A piece of pink card stock was glued to the back of the card front to make a nice smooth and finished look.

For the die cut flower accent, A sponge dauber was used to apply ink to the center. A few die cut leaves and a gem for the center finished the flower. Some random stamping softens the white space at the top of the card, white a sentiment did the same for the bottom.

Inside, the card is simple. Just a stamped flower in the lower right corner was all that's needed. I didn't add a sentiment yet. I'll do that so I can personalize it when I'm going to use it. 

This is such a pretty look and can be adapted to any color combo you like! Why not give it a try?
