Candy Cane and Vellum

Today's card was inspired by


and 



I used PTI bloom builders #3 die with light yellow vellum paper to make the flower, add pink glitters and then top with PTI white and cream mixed vintage buttons





I used the same yellow vellum and layered it over my patterned paper


before I stitch them up, I throw some of my pretty flowers in there


can you see them? the vellum kind of tone down the patterned paper and give a softer look, I like it


I love this vintage image, girl in candy cane costume holding candy cane, how sweet



There is a video tutorial by Melissa Phillips on Layered Vellum Die Cuts, check it out HERE



Glitter flowers - PTI Bloom Builders #3 die
Button - PTI white and cream mixed vintage buttons
Sentiment - PTI Layered Postmark Holiday Stamp Set
