Hello, you wonderful crafters! I'm excited to share with you a new technique I learned, using the Heavy Weight Vellum paper from Paper Temptress. This vellum is absolutely the best I've ever tried! And you can run it through your printer! So the first thing I did, was use my dry embossing folder to do the impression of my heart print you see. I then turned over the vellum and colored in the image with my gel pens. It may look odd on that side, but once you turn it to the other side, it has a wonderful watercolor affect! I then cut out a piece of Heavenly White 80# paper, the same size of my Heart vellum. I stamped an image on that, and adhered it to the back of the Heart vellum. I love the faded look it gives to the background. I got out my Azalea Mica/Metallic paper to use for the foundation of the card, cut it to the size I wanted, folded it, and adhered everything together. I have to tell you, I'm in love with this paper!!! I also added the Pink Feather Edge Ribbon to the top corner. Every piece of paper of that card is from PT. My fave!!
I hope you can come on in and join in with us! These papers are the best I've ever used.
Blessings! Jeanie
