Today I have a new paper pack I'd like to introduce. Chelsea Gardens is a pack with soft greens and greys and butterflies.
I paired the cardmaking stamp set with coordinating thin cuts with the January Stamp of the Month.
I stamped and embossed the branch and butterfly in silver on vellum paper. Vellum is easy to emboss. In fact, that's a fool proof way to guarantee your ink won't smear before drying. To make the muted colors of the butterfly, I colored on the back of the vellum after embossing. And for the leaves, I colored on the back and then flipped it back over and added a bit more green to darken half of each leaf.
Here's a video showing how I assembled this card.
