VERY VELLUM...

Embossing on White Vellum creates a delicate and unique effect...

Black

I used the Spider Web Embossing Folder

to achieve this pattern...

and to continue the translucent elegance,

I repeated the vellum as an inside layer...

I am excited to announce that the upcoming 2013-2014 annual catalog will include 10 color changes, welcoming back some old favorites, moving some colors around and introducing one brand new color!  Take a look...
