Vellum Poinsettia Card...

#482 Layers

For this weeks challenge at 52 CCT I stamped and embossed two poinsettias and after coloring with markers on the non embossed side of the vellum, I trimmed and layered the poinsettia. on a simple stiped panel.  . The panel is a paper that  I downloaded  from Etsy  I had a specific look in mind for my background, and these lovely papers from Azure and Jade Art  were just what I wanted.   I've had this SU poinsettia stamp set a very long time and I still love to use at Christmas. The sentiment on my card is "Merry Christmas."  It  is clean and simple and I really like how it turned out.  This technique of embossing and using markers on the opposite side is called "stained glass."    In thinking further, I guess Vellum Embossing actually refers to dry embossing using Vellum.  I should have lookedd it up!     Check out all the design teams wonderful examples!   I'm also linking my card tp use your stuff.   Thanks for stopping in and I hope you play along with us this week!    Smiles,  Kathy
