If you don’t know what it is, you have to check it out. It blew me away.

I had the detailed dragonfly cut out, but no backing for him, and no idea in particular for a card, but today was the day. It was time to get this card rolling!

The Painted with Love Suite is a fantastic collection in the new Occasions catalogue - see pages 18-19 for all the amazing products, perfectly coordinated and gorgeous!! The Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper is absolutely stunning. You have to see it in real life, the catalogue does not show all it's beauty. This paper is great for Valentine's Day projects, but can be used beyond Valentine's Day for other types of projects as well.

Embossing on vellum is just as easy as embossing on card stock, but gives you a whole different look. It is more muted than on card stock, giving you a softer look, or toning down something you feel is too vibrant for the look you are after.
