Stampin Up Lacy Vellum Card

Happy Saturday everyone!

I have to say I am not looking forward to Monday too much...... so I hope the weekend goes nice and slow........ the reason is I am in for my Op on my shoulder ....... it's only a day visit but like many, I am sure, I hate having anaesthetic...... but the good thing will hopefully be the result I need but the Consultant did say I would probably still need work on my neck issue but hey ho I'm half way there.....

A little while ago I was asked to do something using velum and this is the card I came up with using Stampin' Up! velum cardstock

I ran the velum through the Lacy Brocade embossing folder, if you haven't got this yet? it's a must have.....

the stamped flower from Mixed Bunch stamp set is embossed using Whisper White Kraft ink and white embossing powder and punched out with the Blossom Punch

Tiny Tags tied with the very vanilla ribbon and a button from the Neutrals collection finishes it off

Very lacy and pretty.... I think ....

Have a great slow weekend!

Until next time ......... hope you get to craft today

Elegant Butterfly Stampin' Up!

A brief change from Christmas but not long..... I love making Christmas cards.... but then you probably know that already by how many I show on here!

So this is a bit different eh?

I used the Elegant Butterfly punch and the coordinating stamp set Papillion Potpourri

The designer paper is Patio Party and I die cut each piece with the Large Scallop Edgelits die, the card was embossed using the Lacy Brocade embossing folder available in the Autumn/Winder catalogue

Here is a closer look

and the inside I stamped with a greeting from Perfectly Penned stamp set

Gotta run as I have to get my Flu jab shot at the Doctors surgery this morning and have a class with some lovely ladies this afternoon

Until next time ........ have a great Saturday!
