Welcome back to a new challenge at CAS Mix Up, Embossing Vellum, hosted by our talented Susan. Remember to go to the blog for videos, design team inspiration and to our special guest Bonnie.
I die cut the solid in a yellow piece of vellum using the Memory Box Flitter Side Butterfly and dry embossed with an Alexandra Renke EF. The detail die cut was trimmed of the lacy interior and heat embossed with silver WOW EP. I also die cut two solids in white vellum to support the wings. Once adhered together I added some Nuvo Crystal drops to the edges. For the card base, I stamped a Penny Black Woodland Beauty and white pearl heat embossed. The two Altenew Fine Frames were also white pearl HE.
Hope you’ll join in on the fun, thanks for stopping by, HUGz,
I always enjoy reading the details of your cards, Joanna! The yellow vellum and the AR’s dry embossing are perfect for the butterfly wings. You did a wonderful job of silver heat-embossing the delicate die-cut! I would crumple all the detail parts!! ;-P The white pearl heat-embossed image and thin frames in the background tastefully bring the focus to the gorgeous butterfly. Love this gorgeous card!

So much depth. It is easy to get lost appreciating the details, so many of them. And yet not one thing too much

Amazing butterfly, Jo! I LOVE the bright colour and the beautiful design from the embossing folder. So clever to cut out the center part of the butterfly topper so more of the vellum shows. xx
