Cut It Up 360 - Birthday Vellum Background Card

Welcome to Cut It Up Challenge 360!

The theme for this challenge is to make your own background.

I love using vellum on my cards so I chose to create a vellum background. 

I used three Copic marks to scribble on a piece of vellum and then touched the "joining" areas with rubbing alcohol which helped the colours to spread. Once that piece was dry, I stamped and embossed floral images in white along the side. That was adhered to the white card base and I added a foam taped die cut frame with acetate and placed pink, purple and teal sequins inside the shaker. A sentiment was placed on top of the shaker. 

Come and join us at Cut It Up and show us how you interpret this challenge. 

You have until Monday, July 20 to link up your project. 

We can't wait to see what you create!

Enjoy, 

Alyson

  1. This is such a beautiful shaker card! I love the dreamy look of the alcohol-colored vellum background—it creates such a soft, artistic effect. The shaker frame lets that gorgeous background shine through while adding fun movement. The coordinating sequins tie everything together so beautifully.
