Wow – Texturing Vellum is a fabulous effect! Check out this pretty Softly Sophisticated card

I couldn't stop playing with the Softly Stippled designer paper and the Softly Sophisticated bundle!  This card came together by using a sketch layout I saw online.

There are so many neat details on this card; I'll list a few of them.  

• Check out the textured vellum!  It's done with the Softly Sophisticated folder (sale-a-Bration choice). Our vellum cardstock doesn't crack!
• The pretty Softly Stippled designer paper seen here in the background adds even more texture. 
• The dotted rectangle die-cut is from the Everyday Details dies seen here. 
• Check out the ribbon treatment. I tied a bow around the Pool Party ribbon (Sale-a-Bration choice) with the Pebbled Path jute twine – separated into one strand. 
• The stamps are from the Softly Sophisticated bundle seen here – gorgeous greetings and 2-step florals.

I've mentioned it before but I'm finding our new Pebbled Path to be a wonderful neutral color with our soft subtle colors. It's brown but with a slight gray tone to it.  Lovely!

• A gorgeous Handcrafted Ornaments card with video & free project sheet!

  November 10, 2023

     Look at this beautiful card made with the Handcrafted Elements dies!

  Save

  These dies are seen in our 2023 Holiday catalog or online here.  There are two dies in the set that create that pretty, layered ornament.  

  Save

  I chose to use Starry Sky & Orchid Oasis along with the Brushed Gold cards. For the stamped bough image under the banner, I used Wild Wheat ink, stamped off once.  It's surprisingly close to gold! 

  This card is one we made at my October Card Clubs; they could choose their favorite greeting and also the color of bow on the ornament.  

  Save

  I used the Distressed Tile 3d embossing folder seen here.

• Christmas Classic with the pretty Brushed Gold cards & envelopes; with video & free project sheet

  I shared how to make this pretty card on last week's Live video:

  It features two of my favorite products from the 2023 Holiday catalog; the Christmas Classics bundle and the beautiful Brushed Gold cards & envelopes.

  I cut the card base in half so I could get two card fronts from it. I paired the gold accents with Shaded Spruce and the beautiful, detailed die-cut from the Christmas Classics dies.  See the bundle here.  I think it's absolutely gorgeous.  It's rare that I like the dies as well as the stamps!
