52 Christmas Card Throwdown - 16.23

It's technique week at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown.  

I really need to add some heavy vellum to my stash.  My thin stuff didn't work so I used my LF pearlescent vellum.  I think that was a mistake order but I do love it. 

After embossing with SSS Pepperberry folder, I added an Altenew double-sided sticky sheet and adhered it to white a card base.  For some reason it looks a little pink.  The folder comes with a die that I cut, embossed and colored with Zigs. The silver heat embossed sentiment is from PTI.

I had to try a second one, putting the vellum on Vintage Jadeite from PTI.  It's only May and I'm half way to my needed Christmas cards.   I'm feeling pretty good about that.

The photo at Inskspirational reminded me of a technique I've been doing lately with embossing on vellum although I didn't stamp on both sides for this one.  I was having too much trouble with my anti-static powder tool and wasted three other panels before I broke out the baby powder. 

The embossed flowers are from Altenew's Garden Treasure.  I cut the Poppystamps scalloped frame in white, cut a slightly larger rectangle from kraft and sandwiched the vellum panel between them and the card base.  A little strip of the kraft was embossed with an MFT sentiment.   

Thanks so much for dropping by.  Praying for my family and friends who live in the path of Hurricane Ian.
