Vellum-inous!

Yesterday I shared with you a sneak peak of some embossing I did with my new Anna Griffin embossing folders.  


As promised, here is "the rest of the story"...

I first used my brayer and inked up the inside of the embossing folder.  I placed vellum in the folder and ran it through my new Cuttlebug.  I ran a second piece through without reinking and it came out just a gorgeous, just a little more subtle.

So today, I decided to put that beauty-ness to good use.  A challenge!  (Shocking, I know)  Here is the sketch from CAS(E) this Sketch #13!

Since I just purchased a very whimsical little stamp set from Dylusions (Ranger), I just had the urge to get that in the mix.  The sentiment has nothing to do with anything, but for some reason, I just liked it.  So I used that and a tiny teacup from You Warm My Heart (Stampin Up) and some pink Colorbox Pigment Ink.  The sentiment was stamped with Coffee Archival Ink and cut out.  Mounted it all on kraft cardstock and a white card base.  Ta da!!  What d'ya think?
