Hi there!

Last weekend, I took part in Pinkfresh Studio’s Create and Connect event, which was such fun! Bridget Casey from Altenew taught a new-to-me technique where you colour the reverse of an image embossed on vellum and then adhere a double-sided adhesive sheet on top, ‘trapping’ the colour and making the image a little more opaque.

After the event, I realised that I’ve never taken part in a Pinkfresh challenge and decided it was time for me to do so. I was delighted to see that the theme for the month was ‘Transparent Treasures’ – perfect timing for me to play with the new vellum technique! I embossed and coloured images from the Fluttering Butterflies stamp set before covering them with a self adhesive sheet (leaving the backing on) and die cutting them.

I arranged them in a frame cut from the Nested Elongated Ovals Blanket Stitched Essentials die set and added a sentiment from the Cozy Blooms stamp set that I got for the August 2024 event.

Thanks for stopping by!
