Hello friends! Linda has a new Catered Crop Recipe Swap challenge for us that I think you're going to love! Here's the challenge description, straight from Linda...
Have you noticed how popular vellum has been this summer? Vellum just adds a soft, sweet and gentle light to your projects. I can’t wait to see what you make.
For this challenge, just add vellum to your project.
- Include a link to us at Catered Crop or add our button, which you can grab on our sidebar or at our {button gallery}.
- Link up and link often, but be sure you link up by 8:00 PM EST on Saturday, August 2.
- Keep the party hopping by visiting the other players and leaving comments.
- Check back with us on August 3 to see if you’ve won an opportunity to be a guest designer.
As always, I’ve curated a ton of projects and tutorials here at a Pinterest board, Vellum, where you can find the links to all these projects and more.
Sometimes I struggle with vellum. I think the struggle comes when I'm forced to use it! LOL Because other times I'll be working on a design and think "oooh, vellum would be PERFECT here!" But this time, my design idea came together, and I just love how it turned out. I hope you do, too!
Here's my card...
I started out with a piece of Primitive White card stock from My Favorite Things and stamped it with the BG Sheet Music background in Steel Blue hybrid ink. Then I took the Die-Namics Rose with Overlay and cut out the rose from the bottom right corner of the card front. I added a piece of vellum against the back of the card front, using some invisible vellum adhesive. With another piece of Primitive White card stock placed on an adhesive sheet from MFT, I die-cut the rose again. This put a perfect layer of adhesive on the back of the rose, and after removing the negative pieces, I was able to remove the backing and place the die-cut rose in the space cut from the card front. I added a Pierced Fishtail Flags STAX flag cut from Steel Blue card stock and stamped with a sentiment from CS About Sympathy in Steel Gray hybrid ink, and a yellow seam binding bow.
When the card is closed completely, it looks like this with the Banana Split card stock inside showing through the vellum...
Then on the inside...
I stamped another CS About Sympathy sentiment in Steel Gray hybrid ink on the Banana Split card stock.
