Vellum Wrap Card

Hi all!

I've had these papers and matching vellum for a very long time and thought it was about time I started using it. Here's a card I made using the vellum as a wrap. I stamped a trees stamp from DRS Designs onto the paper and vellum but heat embossed the trees on the outer layer. I also stamped a freebie stamp from a magazine on the outer and heat embossed that. I finished off with a sentiment layered on my dies from The Works.

Snow Globe Card

Good morning all! Here's my second post of the day.

Sharing a Christmas card I have made.

I used 2 card bases and diecut the fronts using my Magnolia Doohickey Lovely Fence die. I embossed  2 pieces of card using my Sissix dots and DoCrafts trees folders. I created a snow globe using stitched circle die from The Works and a snowflake edge die from Find It Trading. I added my stamped Tilda which I coloured with my Promarkers and added seed beads inside.

All that was left to do was add plenty of Glamour Dust, sequins and a bow.
