Flower Garden For You Card

This is a really lovely Embossing Folder, this Flower Garden, and I must really like it with pink!  I just noticed the previous card I made and posted with this folder is also in pink; however this one is Regal Rose while the previous was Blushing Bride.  OK, I promise the next one won't be in pink!  LOL!  I'll branch out!

I embossed White Cardstock Vellum with the Flower Garden folder; the embossed process makes the vellum white where it is stretched!  Cool!  This was layered over Regal Rose which has had the right edge of the Rose cardstock treated with the Eyelet Border Punch.  A length of White Organza Ribbon embellishes the design while it covers the edge of the vellum.

The beautiful Four Frames set (which will be in the new 2011-2012 Catalog) was stamped on Whisper White cardstock in Regal Rose Ink; the "for you" sentiment from Great Friend was stamped in the center and was punched out with the Decorative Label Punch.  Lovely self-adhesive Pearls finish off the design.

Vellum Cardstock or paper is really fun to use and lends itself to some techniques with cool results!  Tip:  Always hide the adhesive behind embellishments because almost all adhesives will show through.

Thanks for visiting!  Try some vellum in your stamping if you don't already use it; you'll learn to love it!
