Pretty Vellum Flowers

Hi everyone!

My card today features some pretty, vellum flowers.  I love the transparency of vellum and I love that you can add a bit of color to tint it just a bit by using your regular dye inks.  

After die-cutting the flowers for this card, I used my foam daubers to apply just a bit of ink to the backside of each petal, the stems, and the leaves.  Then I assembled the flowers and arranged them on my card.

All of the products I used on this card can be found in my Supplies section below!  

I hope this card inspires you to use vellum and add a soft and dreamy look to your next card.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today!

Have a wonderfully creative day!

    What a beautiful, dreamy look! Awesome coloring of the vellum and I love the soft shading in the background that pulls it all together!

    Hi Jean. Your card is so pretty. I have never used vellum. I would have never thought of inking on the back side, but it does make sense. It makes the flowers look delicate and soft.

I fell in love with card-making many years ago and I’ve been hooked on it ever since. I love trying out new techniques and finding the perfect color combination for whatever I’m creating.

By nature, I am an uber-organizer and a steadfast planner, but as you’ll see, my creations are much more fluid. And while I love color theory, the concept of lights and shadows, and the importance of depth and perspective – these are not things I worry about when it comes to my creations.

I simply find joy in creating and delight in sharing.

I hope that by sharing my cards and other art with you here on my blog I can inspire you to create something you love!
