Hey everyone! Thanks for joining me today as we celebrate Spellbinders Stylish Ovals Release. Spellbinders graciously asked me if I would like to create with some of these products and I couldn’t resist.
As you know by now, I love butterflies. I also love embossing folders, so this new embossing folder from Spellbinders is a NO BRAINER! OMG – it’s gorgeous! I couldn’t wait to play with it and I ended up making a ton of cards. I’ll be sharing them over the next ten days, so check back!
For today, I thought I’d be adventurous with the 3D embossing folder and try my hand at embossing vellum. The results are spectacular! I’ve listed all the links to the products I used below. They are affiliate links, which means that if you click on my link and purchase the item, I receive a small commission at no charge to you. Use the links if you like. Totally up to you.
Enjoy!!

Tonic Pearled Silver Vellum
For this card, I used Tonic Pearled Silver Vellum and embossed it with the Spellbinders Beautiful Butterflies 3D Embossing Folder. I also used the same folder and embossed some white cardstock. I trimmed down the vellum and layered it over the white cardstock. Then I die cut the Spellbinders Sealed Birds Etched Dies from champagne colored glitter cardstock. I love the look of the embossed vellum over the embossed cardstock!

Spellbinders Fog Color Cardstock
For this card, I embossed some pure white vellum with the Spellbinders Beautiful Butterflies 3D Embossing Folder. For my flowers, I layered some Tonic Pearled Silver Vellum over light pink cardstock using double sided adhesive sheets. Then, I cut the flowers from the resulting cardstock. The petals have a beautiful pinky, pearl finish! I did the same thing with the leaves using Spellbinders Fog Color Cardstock. Then I layered the embossed vellum over white cardstock and matted the panel with the same pink cardstock as I used for the flowers. A simple Thanks from Spellbinders Yana’s Layered Script Sentiments Etched Dies was the perfect sentiment.

Tonic Pearled Gold Vellum
For my last card, I embossed a piece of Tonic Pearled Gold Vellum with the Spellbinders Beautiful Butterflies 3D Embossing Folder. Then using white pigment ink, I gently ran the pad over the raised embossed surface of the vellum until I liked the coverage. I allowed the vellum to dry overnight.
I used the gorgeous Spellbinders Infinity Punch & Pierce Plate Etched Dies and cut a panel from white cardstock. Gently, I removed the center two pieces being careful to keep all the little die cuts in the surrounding panel. I trimmed down the vellum to fit behind the large oval opening and adhered to the back. Then, using a double-sided adhesive sheet, I adhered the entire panel to another piece of white cardstock. The resulting texture is absolutely delicious!
I finished my card with some butterflies from Spellbinders Delicate Butterflies Etched Dies and some glitter gems.
I hope this encourages you to take your own adventure with Spellbinders Stylish Ovals release! Have fun, and happy crafting!!
