Hero Arts + Paper Smooches Challenge: Day 3

Welcome back to my Hero Arts + Paper Smooches Challenge with Kim Hughes.

Today we will both be using the Hero Arts Lauderdale Floral and the Paper Smooches Pretty Phrases sets:

I decided to make a set of simple thank you cards…

I embossed the greeting on vellum and adhered it to the card by hiding dots of Glossy Accents behind the pearls and folding the ends of the vellum back.

Simple and fun. Oh, and I used lots of Jenni Bowlin inks from Ranger on these. These inks are *fabulous* – you can find them all HERE.

Be sure to go to Kim’s blog next to check out her creation. Oh, and remember that we will be giving away some goodies…

Bye!

    These are so pretty! I’ve never tried embossing on vellum (I only recently got myself supplies for heat embossing), and I will have to remember this technique! Thanks, too, for the tip about how your adhered the vellum strips without letting it show.
