Across the Waves with Vellum

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

It’s a new month & that means Robbie & I are sharing ideas on using Vellum.  Be sure to click HERE to check out what Robbie has created.

I decided to start off with a little Basic Embossing while adding a piece of Pattern Paper to pop the Vellum a little & to highlight it.  To make the card even pop a little more, a die cut frame was adhered around the outside of the Vellum.

Supplies –

  • Perfect Pansies 3D Embossing Folder – Paper Rose Studio
  • Bsaic White Smooth Cardstock – Paper Rose Studio
  • Vellum – My Stash
  • Grunge – Light Tones Pattern Paper – Craft Consortium

Measurements –

  • Base Card – 8 1/4″ x 5 7/8″ / 20.9cm x 14.9cm
  • Pattern Paper – 1 x 3 7/8″ x 5 5/8″ / 9.8cm x 14.2cm
  • Basic White Smooth – 1 x 4″ x 5 3/4″ / 10.1cm x 14.6cm
  • Vellum – 1 x 3 3/4″ x 5 1/2″ / 9.5cm x 13.9cm

Berry Sweet Girl for The Paper Funday Challenge

Published on by Vicky Wright2 Comments

G’Day Friends,

Once again it’s time for another Challenge over at The Paper Funday Challenges.  This month we are sponsored by Varada Sharma Designs and Whimsy Stamps who have kindly given the team a couple of Digital Stamps.  The twist for April is Things beginning with the letter “B”.

I thought the cheeky Sweet Berry Girl would give me a little challenge to get me out of my comfort zone as I am the first to admit I am not good at colouring hair.

The “footpath” has been handrawn & coloured with Copics.  The background was blended with Inks & a Blending Brush prior to adding grass to the top of the footpath with Copics.  The little girl was also coloured with Copics before being fussy cut.

The sentiment is from the All Occasions Sentiment Pack by Paper Rose Studio.

Be sure to pop over to The Paper Funday Challenge Blog to check out what the rest of the Design Team have created along with the entries.  Better still, why not play along with us this month by adding your link over on the blog.

Until next time, Happy Crafting

Vicky
