This card is inspired by Karen Barber. Here is a link to her beautiful card. http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/936728?cat=13815This technique is very easy. You emboss your stamped image on vellum. Colour on the other side of the image for a soft look and voila!

ReplyDeleteQuestion--how do you keep the vellum from getting all distorted? I tried embossing on vellum a few days ago and as soon as I took my heat tool to it, it started sort of warping a little?
It wasn't flat like yours when I was done. What's your secret?
Hi Julia,
ReplyDeleteI try and keep the heating tool not too close too the vellum. See if this helps.
Thanks
