Vellum Techniques #9

Lovely vellum embellishments are easily made with the Big Shot die cutting system or punches.

The vellum leaf spray on this card was cut out using the Big Shot and the Little Leaves Sizzlits die, then stamped. It is held in place with a brad.

I embossed Designer Series Paper with the Big Shot and the Manhattan Flower embossing folder, then sanded the raised image and trimmed the top following the outline of the flowers.
