Vellum Flower Petals

Technique Time!  Today's card is a CASE from another demonstrator, LeAnn Greff. I made a few minor changes, however.  The actual technique is called direct to paper ... meaning the ink pad is applied directly to the card stock, in this case the vellum.

Card measurements

Basic White    5-1/2 x 8-1/2, 3-1/4 x 4-1/2, scraps
Azure Afternoon    3-1/2 x 4-3/4, 1/2 x 3-1/2
Vellum        2-3/4 x 8-1/2

Tent Card Calendar

Surprise Message

 




Technique Time!  When people wrap gifts and give them, I believe they do that for that element of surprise.  This card accomplishes that same idea.  It's done by using a removable portion of the card to reveal and inside message.

Bubble Bath    5-1/2 x 8-1/2, 2-3/4 x 2-3.4 (dotted heart)
Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper (2) 2 x 5-1/4
Plain white copy paper   2 x 5-1/4
Mossy Meadow    1/2 x 5-1/4
Basic White    2-3/4 x 2-3/4, 1-1/4 x 2
