Love how this turned out ... the inks blend so nicely on vellum. I used my heat tool to dry the ink, but found it still smudged a little, so I covered the front with an acetate sheet to protect the ink - worked great. I framed the brayered vellum between two pieces of white cardstock, both with a rectangle die-cut in the center. I then popped it up on my card front to give some space between the vellum and card.
I used the colours from the Colours & Sketches Challenge #30 - colours: cajun crazy, gumball green, primrose petals. Love these colours together!
Loll this turned out beautiful. I never thought of brayering on vellum. I left you a question on your blog about the copper leaves. Would you mind sending me a pm?

Truly gorgeous, Loll. Never thought of brayering on vellum, but it does have a great "tooth" which would make it perfect. Love the simple silhouetted grasses image you chose and the font of your sentiment is beautiful and so fitting with your design.
