A little Vellum

Evening everyone, well I squeezed a little craft time in last night but sadly didn't get a minute to post it till now. A busy morning then a sad farewell to a lovely Elder at our church, he passed away last week at the grand age of 92...he will be missed by everyone that knew him. A beautiful celebration of his life though with  church packed to the door.
Here's the CAS card I made for the ATCAS..Vellum challenge
I haven't used Vellum for years so it was somewhat of a challenge to decide what to do with it...lol
A few things I am not happy about...not sure I like my choice of card base...the Vellum looks very grey (not in real life).. and finally I have never been happy with how this text stamps, It always seems to miss here and there...even using a plain ink :o(   I think it may be one for the bottom of the drawer.

I stamped and embossed onto it and cut out and made up the flowers, the stamp was one of a few I bought at The Dome, its a Honey Doo stamp called "Flowers for design"
Embossed with Gold WOW powder.
Catch you tomorrow hopefully xxxxxx

    Those flowers are so beautiful Mau. The gold embossing on the vellum is so striking. I know what you mean about the sentiment stamp. Sometimes they just aren't the quality we would like. :-( Hope all is well with you. Hugs!
    P.S. If you don't mind (hee hee) you can give Alfie another snuggle for me.
