I hope you like this Quick and Easy Petal Promenade Card With Vellum because I really do! I love the look of the strong designer paper underneath a piece of Vellum Cardstock to tone it down, yet you can see the paper straight on over on each side. Yet it is an easy card to make, really.
The Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper is so beautiful, you really need to see it in person! It is one of the select papers on the Designer Paper Buy 3 Get 1 Free Sale going on now through July 31. You might even want to get two packages of it if you like to make a lot of beautiful cards! This paper is perfect for lots of occasions, such as weddings, engagements, anniversaries, birthdays, graduation and many more!
My card has a base of Powder Pink and then a layer of the Petal Promenade Paper. The Vellum Cardstock is cut narrower than the designer paper so that about half an inch of designer paper on each side shows. It is somewhat difficult to adhere vellum because most glue shows through. It is best if you can hide it, which I did in two places on this card. I tied the bow, made with the Petal Pink Metallic Ribbon in a combo and then planned where to attach it at the top of the vellum. Then I hid a drop of Liquid Glue underneath where the bow would go to adhere the vellum to the designer paper and adhered the bow over that glue spot with a couple of Glue Dots.
Next, I made the label at the bottom of the card using the Label Me Pretty Stamp Set and the Pretty Label Punch. It is accented with two little Artisan Pearls. After adhering this label with the greeting at the bottom of the card, I could then add some Liquid Glue underneath that label to adhere the vellum to the card front.
If you wanted to, you could punch two holes in the top through the designer paper and vellum and tie the bow through the papers to hold everything in place.
Here’s a card I made the other day with the Petal Promenade Designer Paper after I received my order!
