VELLUM AND EMBOSSING

My card today is totally different from what was in my mind's eye when I began it - but think it turned out ok.  I am going to enter it in three challenges - CAS Mix-Up (embossed vellum, stamping and copic coloring), AAA Birthday (vellum) and The Paper Players (flowers, embossing and die cutting).


The base of my card is heavy weight vellum as are the flowers and leaves which I heat embossed and colored with copics.  I die cut a rectangle and adhered to the front and also added same size on the inside for writing a message.  Arranged the bouquet and attached to the top, added the sentiment and some enamel dots and done.





Supplies:
Stamps & Dies: Altenew 
Dies: Hero Arts 
Embossing Powder: Hero Arts
Vellum: Hero Arts

Thanks for visiting today - hope you all are well and safe.
