A large card featuing an embossed dragonfly on handmade paper, paper pierced vellum and a hand decorated background
This is my last card using the large pieces of hand decorated backgrounds I made a while back which feature sanding and wax resist. I trimmed the vellum with silver hearts, added some paper piercing with my pattern tracing wheel and then laid it over my background and folded the ends over and secured them with tape. I mounted this to my large gray card. I trimmed a scrap of purple cardstock, flagged both ends.added several lines of paper piercing and then two eyelets. I mounted this over my vellum and then mounted my dragonfly image over it using 3D foam tape. The dragonfly image is silver embossed onto white tissue paper and encorporated into handmade paper during the process of making the paper. It is a fun technique and gives the look of them being all one piece. This one comes from my stash as I have not made handmade paper lately. Therese
