Vellum/parchment @ MAWTT


Good Morning,

I'm here today to let you know there's a great new challenge starting today over at
This week Wendy is hosting her first challenge since joining the DT and she has chosen:

Vellum/Parchment


I have used red card to mat embossed vellum on to (embossing folder used - tied together), I glued the vellum to the card where the pattern meets then used viva pearls to hide the glue. I stamped and embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder then mounted this onto a red circle, gluing it only round the edges. A red scalloped circle frame was then glued over the top, again to hide the glue. A selection of double layer die cut flowers with viva pearl centres and leaves were then added for that finishing touch.

Can't wait to see what you create, so why not hop on over to the challenge blog for more super examples from the talented DT
