CARD: Tool Shed Masculine Vellum Impressions

tool shed-vellum-stampwithtamiToday’s card was meant to be a video tutorial, and I’m embarrassed to tell you how long it’s been sitting in my “Que” of projects to tape. I’m so sorry! Now both stamp sets; the Tool Shed stamp & Best Dad Ever sets are retiring next week (June 3 is the last day to get this) I ran out of time! I will do another “vellum impressions” video in the future, and I will be releasing a different video later (already taped). But I wanted to share this Father’s Day card idea while you can still get the stamps. It’s a great masculine birthday as well.

Vellum Impressions Technique:

  • Stamp the Tool Shed stamp on the front of vellum card stock using Staz On Jet black
  • Flip over and use the Simply Scored Stylus to press on the back of the vellum behind each image (similar to dry embossing)
  • Pressing on the back creates a “raised” and “frosted” look on the front so your vellum is textured. It’s important to use the Vellum Card Stock to prevent tearing. A lighter weight vellum will tear.

The card stock layers are:

  • Basic Black Base: 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ (folded in half)
  • Chocolate chip: 4″ x 5-1/4″
  • Crumb cake (this layers under vellum, it only shows thru vellum): 5″ x 3-3/4″
  • Vellum Card Stock: 5″ x 3-3/4″
