I used Colorbok and Melissa Frances paper, The Paper Studios vellum & pearls, my square Nestabilities, Swiss Dots embossing folder, Papertrey Ink stamps, K & Co. flower, Melissa Frances lace, & Stickles. I embossed my vellum with the swiss dots embossing folder and then ran a light layer of pink ink over the top to make the embossing really stand out. I put one piece of my Melissa Frances paper under the vellum and one on top to give it a foggy look. I then took my Nesties to make the little frame around the paper and sentiment...use 2 Nesties that are next to each other in size and run it thru your Cuttlebug at the same time, one in the other. It makes a cool frame.
I was so excited about the vellum I made a second card:
I put my embossed vellum over top of the same Melissa Frances paper I used on the card above and ran over it with my ink pad. I then tore the edges of the paper and vellum then inked those edges also. See the cute gingham fabric - my dog groomer always puts a cute bandanna around my Gracie when she gets her hair done and I recycled this one to use on a card. The rub on is Melissa Frances.
Now it's your turn to make a card. Cuttlebug Challenge is giving away a gift certificate from CropStop to this week's winner!
Enjoy!

How cute! I love Easter cards and the bandana is too cute!
Amber, both these cards are beautiful. Love all the layers and the colors are perfect for spring.
Absolutey gorgeous Amber! It's usually me that gets carried away, lol! These are both beautiful, though I think the first one is my favourite. Great effect with the Nesties frame and the pearls finish it beautifully! I'm like you, I think I will be embossing a lot more vellum now!
