Tricks to mounting word dies using double stamped vellum technique by Chrissie Stokes (27:33)
For the card above I started by stamping and white heat embossing Together (Penny Black) on vellum. I flipped my vellum over and stamped the same images (mostly the blooms) onto the back with Wilted Violet distress ink. I angled the image and stamped several times. Always good to have some of the stamping on the back so that it's overlapping part of the white stamping. When you flip it back to the front, it really does look 3-D with the different layers of stamping. I added strips of metallic purple paper along the sides of my vellum panel, adding foam tape on either side (back of metallic strips) so the panel is popped up from the card base. I stamped the sentiment (Special Sentiments - Penny Black) in white pigment ink onto another piece of purple metallic card and heat embossed with white. I cut the sentiment to size.

I'm sending this card over to Penny Black Saturday October Challenge - Anything Goes.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your Double Stamped Vellum Layering Technique card, Lolly. This technique is definitely on my to do list:-) Your CAS design and colors are Stunning, my friend. TFS and always inspiring me:-) Love and Hugs..Nancy
I think this is one of the best techniques I've tried, Loll. Those lacy flowers worked beautifully for it and I love them in purple on the backside.
This is beautiful! I need to try this technique!
This is so pretty Loll, and what a great stamp for this technique.
This is definitely on my list of things to try. I forget how pretty vellum looks when you stamp and emboss, and I do love this 3D effect xx
Beautiful card Loll, I love the effect of this technique. xx

So beautiful with all the purple, Loll - love this!!
Such a pretty card and an interesting technique - thanks for the links
Such a pretty panel you've created Loll, I've seen Chrissie do this technique and have been going to try it out but not getting around to doing it! Rain forecast for today, so perhaps... . :)
What a fabulous card I just love the technique, especially with that gorgeous purple frame.

This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL Loll! I've seen Bonnie use this technique a few times too and I really, REALLY need to get on the ball and try this as it is just SO pretty! I love the shiny purple cardstock strips on the sides too...really pulls it all together! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
This is something I want to try too. Your card is beautiful and the purple just shines. Thanks for the links.
Gorgeous card, Loll! I fell in love with Chrissie's technique when I saw it back in August! I love the flowers in white with purple and need to look through my stamps to make more cards with the technique. Sue N
Beautiful, Loll! This is so ethereal. Love that effect and love your color choices too.
Wow - so pretty on the vellum Loll! love the white and purple - I need to try this now! I saw some of Chrissie's on FB but didn't check out the details of the technique. xx
This is gorgeous, Loll! The purple flowers stamped on the back of the vellum do have a wonderful 3-D effect. The shine of the purple metallic sides and the white heat-embossed flowers is so pretty too. I'd love to try this technique soon!

This is absolutely STUNNING! I've never seen this technique before but it really looks beautiful. I love the subtle purple color that shows from the back and the white on front! A perfect 3D birthday card! TFS the links too!
Loll, How pretty is this! Thanks for the detailed write-up. Thanks for joining us at Seize the Birthday!
Gorgeous! Beautifully embossed/stamped. The metallic purple strips frames it beautifully.
My oh my, absolutely gorgeous! It's on my list to try, but so many things calling to me all at once. The purple metallic is a stunning addition to your exquisite double stamped vellum. Wow, Loll!
This is beautiful Loll!
Must give this a try myself!
