Slimline wedding card with Sketchy Flowers vellum background – Rubber Dance

Hello everyone, it´s my turn to share a project over at the Rubber Dance blog today again and I am up with another card idea share. I needed a wedding card for a green colour themed wedding and came up with this idea. I used Sketchy Flowers #3 stamp for this slimline card´s vellum part.

Here is how I created the card:

I first cut the vellum into the size of my slimline card base with a paper trimmer, then stamped the images with embossing ink and white embossing powder around the edges of the vellum piece. Next I flipped the embossed vellum upside down and used alcohol markers to color the flowers and the leaves.

Then I took a green patterned paper, cut that into size and adhered it onto the card base. After that I added a layer of tulle on top of the green patterned paper and fussy cut the vellum piece so, that I could place a paper doll in the middle. For finishing touches I added some chipboard hears and vintage ribbons and a paper flower to go with the vintage wedding couple image.

I hope this card inspired you to try out the embossed and colored vellum idea on your art projects. It is lots of fun!
Happy crafting,
Sanna
