Very pretty vellum card Kathy - almost identical to what I had in mind with some Altenew leaf stamps I have. Will have to have a rethink as you've nailed it!
Two great makes Kathy, love the first one though,
I miss the leafy walks but lots of other thing are great hee,

Both your cards are lovely. Good luck with the challenge. Have a nice weekend, Ankie
Well that vellum card is just so pretty! It's a great technique which you've used to brilliant effect.
Loving the splatty "Hello" card too.
Happy Saturday xxx

I love both cards. So pretty and my favorite color blue. Thanks for playing along with us at PIP Challenges.
Two great cards, Kathy. I love your LIM card and was so glad you described the way you made it. I am going to have to CASE this one. Great color choice with the teal. It stands out beautifully behind the vellum. Thanks you always, for playing with us at Less Is More.
Fabulous cards Kathy
Two great cards Kathy - love the shiny leaves on the first one!
I saw that technique over on FB and thought I'd have a try but so far haven't done so. Yours looks so pretty I might have to get out the vellum!
Thanks for joining in at HLS Birthday. :)
Such a pretty technique and another really pretty look with the teal and white combination Kathy, and then the bright blue inky splatters look great with the added large sentiment on the second. x
Such a great pair of cards, Kathy and I particularly love the vellum technique you used. So unusual and beautiful!
Thanks for sharing with us at Addicted to Stamps and More.
A really beautiful card. Great idea for a card. Thank you for sharing it with us in the HLS Birthday gallery.

Quite spectacular your two makes! Neat trick with the vellum to emboss the front and stamp the back. I love splatters on a card too! So happy you played along with Krafty Chicks Challenge this week.

Great that you gave us a description of your vellum make as your layers weren't all that obvious in the pic. Fab use of it though with your bold stamp and colour choice :)
Thanks for joining in with our challenge at Less is More.
