Vellum overlay card ~ flowers & emboss resist background.

 Hello.  Today, I am sharing an idea for using heat embossing and ink blending for a vellum overlay card.

Sentiment:

Have a beautiful day.

This vellum card was fun to make and turned out so pretty and soft looking.

I made a quick video tutorial showing the process for this project.

Helpful tips:

These are helpful tips on how to make a vellum overlay card by hand.  To begin, make a background or use patterned paper.  I heat embossed a script background in white onto white cardstock.  Then, I added ink blending.  Next, stamp and heat emboss onto one side of heat-resistant vellum paper using a sentiment and florals or stamps of your choice.  I used white embossing powder.  Also, trim or die-cut the background panel.  Then, fussy cut (cut out) the edges of one side of the flower stamping to make a border. Next, adhere the background panel to the card base using foam tape.  Finally, hide flat double-sided tape behind the flower stamping, adhere the vellum over the card front, to finish.
