Leaves, Script and Vellum

Welcome

This card is the result of an afternoons fun in my studio


I started by stamping through a stencil, once that was dry I then sponged distress inks over the stamping.


I did not want to smother the colours of the stencilling, so used vellum to 'carry' the embossed sentiment.
I had no dark brown card, so inked the edges of the next layer 


I then die cut the doily in vellum, stamped and embossed the flower and adhered it in the bottom corner.


After assembling the card, I then trimmed the doily to the edge of the card.
The final details were the pearls.
