Playing with Vellum
Good morning everybody and a really beautiful morning it is here. Actually the last few days were supposed to be very wet but it did not happen (at least where I live) so hopefully it will remain dry for the next few days as Gerry and I are going over to Donegal until Thursday for a little break. Anyway - my card today is the result of playing around with some vellum. Every time I have made a card with vellum it has ended up in the bin as I was not happy with the results - but I was quite happy with this simple little card and even Gerry liked it. All I have used is the Fleur de Lis squares from Spellbinders and one of their classic edges along with a little Marianne die which was just part of a set and of course finished off with a few pearls from Wild Orchid. I don't suppose you could call it clean and simple but it's not too far off. Thank you for taking a look and have a lovely day.
This is gorgeous, the vellum flower is beautiful. Sue x
