Clear & Sheer Day 2

Hello again...

Well, it's day 2 for me even if it's day 5 of the class...
So this lesson was about vellum techniques and I don't think I've ever tried to use copics to colour vellum ... It's kind of tricky as the ink stays on the top
Nevertheless I had a go and here's my card 


I do however, love cutting out with vellum it's so easy -  For this card I used a Stampendous stamp together with a couple of leaf dies


The base of the flowers and leaves are anchored with double sided tape and the ribbon hides it - I also used a little glue here and there on the back of the flowers


Even though the colouring is not marvelous, I do like the result and would probably try this again 
What do you think?

Have a great day and thanks so much for your visit

I think it's BEAUTIFUL! So light and airy! Your coloring is FABULOUS ... I certainly don't see anything wrong with it. Such a pretty, pretty card Ros ... I just love it! Well done! As soon as I get this last spring show over with today I'm going to give this a whirl ... thanks for always inspiring me.

I think its fabulous ! I love the colouring its beautiful especially the effect of the leaves. I reckon you could have taught the class instead of taking part. The vellum is so beautiful gives the card such a beautiful ethereal feel.

Beautiful. I love the airy look of the flowers. The pretty bow and sentiment grounds the card.

Very pretty, you've inspired me to dig out those vellum paper!

I actually adore this look & I'm thinking maybe I could actually use my Copics! Gorgeous card, my friend--you've inspired me again!

I'm not surprised to see you rocking the vellum class homework, Ros! Both days' cards are stunning! If you ask me, you should be TEACHING the class! Hugs, Darnell

Brought a smile to my face...Yes great technique, something I haven't tried either but after seeing this beautify I shall add it to my 'to try list'.... so thank you for the inspiration. Such pretty colours, loving the effect on the vellum and the prettiest of layouts x

Subtle and definitely stunning. The flowers are gorgeous. And a brilliant idea to add the flowers and leaves with double sided tape and cover it with a lovely bow. This card is a jaw dropper!

Simply stunning card, Ros! Your vellum floral arrangement looks so delicate and ethereal. Clever adhesive placement. Congrats on being showcased on the Sheer and Clear wrap up day!

You can color on the backside of the stamping and you won't see the lines as much but I think it looks amazing on the front. It's much more vibrant. Great color choices too Ros.
