...a vellum Pocket Card



I've been dying to make a pocket card for ages - this one was inspired by Niki Estes fantastic dry embossing technique that she posted during blog hop night. Check it out here

I love the snowflakes in Snowflake Serenade ( PapertreyInk)and they seem perfectly suited to this technique. The Sentiment is from Holiday Wishes, also PTI. The papers I used were part of a goody stack sent to me by Beverly of Precious scraps - Thank you so much Beverly - they are gorgeous to work with.

Again this post is scheduled to go up on it's own - hope it works. I can't believe i'm going to miss the release party on PapertreyInk!!...

  2. Lovely! I am yet to try dry embossing especially with detailed images like this. I love anything snowflake and one day wish to get a camera that can photograph them.

    Hope you are having a great time.
