Decorative Borders & coloring vellum technique with video


Last month our Flowerbug's Team swap theme was to use vellum or window sheets.  Here's what I came up with featuring the Decorative Borders stamp set seen here.  

I heat embossed the image twice with black embossing folder in two corners.  This is on vellum card stock. After it was set I colored in the images with Blends markers – Polished Pink, Granny Apple Green and Old Olive.  The corner image is small but it still took a bit of time to do them all.  I colored on the back side; no real reason except it's a little more forgiving. 

The greeting die-cut is from the Potted Succulents dies; the heat embossed image is from Color & Contour stamp set in the Annual Catalog. 

My measurements are:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 6 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • Printed vellum 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
  • Vellum card stock 3 1/4" X 4 1/8"
  • White front 3 1/2" X 4 1/2" , inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" 
  • Black 3 3/4" X 4 3/4" 

Below is a photo of the pretty Decorative Borders stamp set.  There are so many ways you might use this set; I share a few more in the video below.  It would be perfect to decorate your envelopes too! 

Here's how I finished the inside of the card.

  • Exciting Times card with a new In Color


    Here’s a neat card that showcases a bunch of new products from the 2026 Summer catalog by Stampin’ Up!.

    This is our new ‘Golden Glow’ in color with Blueberry Bushel and White. I added white centers to the small embossed daisies with our new White Gel Pen.

    It features a ton of new products which I’ll list here:

    I trimmed off one inch from the card front to reveal the pretty DSP on the inside edge. I originally created this for a possible swap card; but it didn’t make the cut. Do you see the blooper/mistake here?

    Thanks for stopping in today; I appreciate it!

    Below are the two new kits in June!

  • Cheerfully Inked card kit to go; reserve yours soon!


    Because we’re moving to Bismarck in July I will have just one card kit to go in June. I will be busy packing and moving so I’m cutting back on blog posts, videos and creating for a few weeks.

    This kit to go features the Inked Occasions Paper Pumpkin kit. Look how colorful and beautiful they are?! Of course I changed up the original kit to create these:

    I have a small, limited supply of these kits!

    You can reserve your kit here; they’re $31 for all 12 cards with envelopes. It includes all die-cuts and layers plus a share of pretty sequins. You’ll receive the PDF tutorial immediately after purchase; check your junk folder.

    But you can browse my many other kits to go here. Quite a few are reduced in price to clear them out before I move.
