Bah Humbug - Challenge 40!!!

Hello everyone, this week over at Bah Humbug the ladies would like to see VELLUM on your creations - EEK!!! I have some in my stash (don't we all!!) but it is not something I use often.  However I used two different pieces on my creation, one a strip of blue iridescent vellum behind my image and I actually used a piece of normal (?white) vellum which I used a masking technique on - a first for me,  but really effective.  I stamped in stazon then turned the image over and coloured it from behind with promarkers.  I then turned the image back over and used flock and glamour dust for the snow. I mounted the image on silver mirro card and corodinating card.  I finished with a ribbon and Christmas greeting.  Here is my card,


Thanks for looking, love Steph

You may not use vellum very often but you get stunning effects when you do. This card has a lot of work in it and it shows. Great entry in the Bah! Humbug! challenge.
