Good Saturday morning. My project today was made for the Splitcoaststampers Free For All Challenge to use vellum. I instantly thought of vellum flowers and foliage against a pink background. For some reason I had a very hard time getting the pink to photograph it’s natural color. It shows darker than it really is and that’s just how it goes sometimes.
I embossed the pink background and attached it to the card base and mounted the frames to the background with strips of mounting tape. I formed the flowers and foliage using my stylus and molding pad.
I attached the foliage to the base with glossy accents and arranged the flowers around the foliage. I filled in with punched branches to soften. I added the pearls to the center for the finishing touch.
Here’s a closer view.
I love using frames on my cards and just received the new My Favorite Things Rectangle Frames set this week. If you like using frames you may want to check this set out.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great weekend.
Kittie, this is just stunning…. I absolutely love it. Your flowers don’t even look marked at all, you are amazing with the stylus…. I can’t tell you how much I loved this card. Thank you for sharing your wonderful creativity

Stunning Kittie, love the vellum flowers….should have gotten those Frames . Was thinking about them with this last order.

Beautiful Kittie. I love the look of vellum on a card and this is stunning.
Good Morning, Kittie. Soft pink or bright pink. this is a gorgeous creation. I love those vellum flowers, I need to think more of that product. the pearl in the center makes them pop with beauty. Another keeper…. have a good week-end. LOL
Amazingly beautiful Kittie! The vellum flowers are very unique. Did you use a Martha Stewart punch for the evergreen branches, it looks like it? That is one of my favourite Martha punches. The frame die set is going on my wish list. Thank you for sharing this creatively inspiring card. I have been thinking of doing something with butterflies made of vellum.

The use of vellum for flowers makes them look so real.
I am at a loss for the adjectives I want to convey how, absolutely, wonderful this card is. It’s ethereal to me. Thank you so very much for all the joy.
