SFYTT March Sketch

I've been wanting to try some sketches for a while so here is my first attempt using the March sketch for SFYTT at I {heart} 2 Stamp . . . .


Decided to clean up my craft area today and used many of the pieces parts of papers I had laying around to make this card. I try so hard to not throw out every little piece of paper and to reuse them later. Yep, doing my part at keeping it out of the landfills as much as possible.


Till next time.

Vellum Embossing

Whether you call it vellum embossing, parchment craft or pergamano it always looks great. I love that soft elegant feel of vellum. This card is just a simple embossing over a template I found in a book you can find here.


I traced over the template page with a small embossing tool, shaded in the areas in the flower for more dimension and then added the pearl centers. It's amazing to me how elegant this card looks and the embossing only took me about 20 minutes in total. Thanks for visiting!
