How Do You Make Vellum Cards The Astoundingly Easy Way?

Birthday Cards· Easy Cards· Gallery

5 Oct

I love 5 minute card ideas & when you make vellum cards that are quick and simple that’s an extra treat! I sure hope that you haven’t overlooked the Shimmer Vellum Paper in the annual catalog because it’s a gem!

Not only are these cards quick to make but you can make one for any occasion. PLUS….the vellum paper adds elegance to those handmade cards!

Make Vellum Cards! Glimmering & Fast, Here’s How…

Did you know that Stampin’ Up! offers not only regular vellum cardstock but also gorgeous shimmer vellum in 5 colors (the 2021-2023 InColors!)? OMG, what a game changer for a WOW card! You’ll be making cards like mine and looking to see what embossing folders you can pair it with too.

Watch all the way through the video so you don’t miss any tips I share!

Ready to Make Vellum Cards? Had You Overlooked the Shimmer Vellum Paper? Share Your Thoughts!

My first card (pictured above) is in the classic colors of Real Red and White. I embossed the vellum with the ‘Wintry 3d Embossing Folder’ & topped the card off with the Real Red Satin Ribbon.

Card 2: Another Christmas Card with Evening Evergreen cardstock & ink + the Wintry 3d Embossing Folder embossed on the vellum paper.

The gold ribbon on this card was simply glued on and trimmed to fit.
