VELLUM Links in Volume (100+ Vellum techniques/tricks/projects) :O)

Hi Galz n Guyz!

A whole whack of Vellum Links for ya today. I have one more new release post ready to share with you for Little Paper Shop! But I had no chance to shoot the photos of the finished project today (Dr's appointments & a day of bed rest for this gucky lung & bronchial schtuff. I tell ya, I could sleep all day & night...moan groan whine... LOL) Well, that's a sneak peek at the card, up above. It's a shaped card; can you guess what it is? :O)

And I have a new obsession! I learned how to make vellum flowers from Godlieve's fantastic tutorial. I'm hooked on making 'em now. :O) Those ones (up there) have knots stitched in the centers. I also have some vellum-y lookin' beads that might be neat & glitter centers would be cute don't ya think?

A tip for you, if you'd like to try vellum flowers: Set a dampened sponge in a dish & lightly wet your punched vellum before working it. Keeps it from tearing. (Works for embossing Vellum in the Cuttlebug too--though the moisture might make large pieces curl on you but you can let it dry in the folder (under a book maybe?)

I'm looking forward to using Sizzix dies for vellum flowers (got the Birds & Blooms dies a while back.) I was heartbroken when I tried to cut felt & fun foam with them. My Duh. They're only supposed to cut paper, but they should cut vellum!?! The shape of that 6 petal flower is just right for the flower shaping technique too. :O)

I'd also like to see if they cut crepe paper, which I have to find, since I love these crepe paper fleurs à la martha & these too. Anyone tried that?
