Ok and we are back. School is back in session, my oldest is off at college and my guest have left. My house still remains a complete disaster but I just had to do something creative with paper because otherwise I would have not excuse to buy anymore stuff. This week I wanted to try to do something with vellum. I have seen so lovely card on Unity Stamps Blog and on the Unity Show and Tell on Facebook using vellum. I made the first card, than decided to take the vellum off as it did not seem bright enough for me. Than I made a second with it on. I really had fun using spray mist and the back ground stamp. A little messy but I think it was worth it. You be the judge.
Supplies:
Unity Stamp Company: Love {in the background}, KOM 8/14,
Paper: Studio Calico
Misting ink: Huey Misting spray
embellishments: random in stash and MME enamel dots
Twine: American Crafts
Ink: Memento
Vellum: Paper Studio
Also the stamp sentiment is straight it is just that I have been drinking wine all day and can not take a decent picture...only joking...or am I?
Thanks for looking. Have a great weekend.

Sadly it was coffee, but I need an excuse for my poor photographic skills.
DeleteLove this! I love using spray inks!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I love the heart background and I think I like the one without the vellum more. The colors just really POP!
ReplyDeleteyes, thank you I agree.
DeleteWorks we'll either way. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteBoth cards look great, but I agree with you, the one without vellum does have more *oomph*. :)
ReplyDeleteThey're both very pretty, depending on whether you like a crisp image or a softer look - each works well!
ReplyDeleteI like both of them, but I'm partial to the happy, bright colors!
ReplyDeleteLove both versions of the card and LOL about your photo taking skills, I suffer the same affliction!!
ReplyDeleteLove the way the background fades away to make room for the sentiment!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary Anne, that is what I was going for. You made my day.
ReplyDeleteBoth are great but I like the one without the vellum better.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! I like the one without vellum!
