Fragrant Layers Card with a Vellum Background Technique

 Hi Friends!

Today’s card is all about soft layers, gentle color, and letting your die cuts shine. For this project, I used the Fragrant Layers bundle paired with a vellum background technique that creates a beautiful, dreamy backdrop without overpowering the design.

Vellum can sometimes feel tricky to work with, but when it’s used this way, it adds just the right amount of color and interest while keeping the card light and elegant. The layered florals from Fragrant Layers really stand out against the translucent background, making this card perfect for birthdays, celebrations, or anytime you want something a little extra special.

During the live demonstration, I shared tips for adhering vellum cleanly, choosing color combinations that blend well, and building layered focal points that don’t feel bulky. This is one of those cards that looks intricate, but once you see the steps, it comes together beautifully.

If you missed the live demo, be sure to watch the replay — I walk through the entire process and share ideas for adapting this technique to other stamp sets and occasions.
