Happy Tuesday everyone! This week's quick tip is how to use ink on vellum to give more dimension on your project. I used this technique on my Challenge Me Monday project this week.
Here are the steps:
1. First I embossed my vellum with the Stampin Up Snowflake Embossing folder.
2. Then I used a sponge dauber and ink to highlight the area around each snowflake.
3. I place some dimensionals on the back to give a shadow effect with the lighter blue background.
Here is a video where I got this technique from StampQueen101:
I hope you enjoyed this weeks quick tip. Don't forget to link up your Challenge Me Monday projects and come back tomorrow to find out Wednesday's Winners.

Beautiful card! So cool that such a simple technique can add so much.
Great tip! I've never tried this before. The technique looks FANTASTIC with your card! (I love that embossing folder, too!)
Thanks for sharing, Melanie!
Love that you shared this as your card was so beautiful. Thanks so much.
I love this tip, I can't wait to try it... I have been wanting to use velum for a while but couldn't think of how to use it.. who even knew you could emboss it! Wow... Your card is beautiful!
