This is my card for today's challenge to use patterns. I used two flower patterns. The embossed panel on top is vellum and I love the way it came out, although I need a little practice getting it to lay down better. Speaking of which, I used Zip-Dry to glue it on and it worked great. If you look really closely IRL and your LOOKING for it, you can see a very faint mark....but it's virtually invisible....I've been looking for glue to use on vellum for ages so I'm happy with that.
TFL!

I like that you used embossed patterns rather than paper patterns. What a beautiful card! Thanks for the tip about the Zip Dry and vellum. I'll have to give that a try. I have two bottles of Zip Dry on my shelf.

Beautiful, Jo! Hmmm... I have some zip dry glue around here somewhere...need to find it. I love that embossed vellum overlay. Embossing on vellum always looks so fabulous.
