All Occasion Card - double stamped vellum in a framed with some fiber and lace and a stamped heart punchie

A few weeks ago after reading about the double stamped vellum technique on Splitcoast Stampers I decided to give it a go!!  I choose some stamps and dug out the white embossing powder and vellum.  Most of the stampers had used some sort of frame so I dug out a large frame die (SX) which would make it easy to adhere the vellum.  I cut the vellum just a bit larger than the opening and stamped both sides with the same stamp - the front was embossed with white embossing powder and the back was stamped with a colour.  I had cut six pieces of vellum so I die cut six white frames to go with them.  Life got busy and I did not get back to them for a few days and have been making cards sporadically as time allowed.  This is my first card.  I embossed the frame with the Swiss Dots embossing folder (CB), adhered the heart (SU) stamped vellum to the back using double sided tape and then backed it with a piece of white bond paper which gives it a nice clean look.  I wrapped a length of white fiber to the frame tying a knot on the upper left hand corner.  I added two lengths of scalloped lace to my background before securing it to my card front.  I added my frame to my card using 3D foam tape and then embellishing the card with a coordinating white embossed heart punch in pink.  This will be great for a little girls card, Vallentine's or an anniversary.  Therese
