SAVI Sunday 27 – Using the Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper (2)

I am doing a short series on how to use the Flocked Vellum paper from the Poinsettia Place Suite available in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.  This specialty paper is so pretty and a unique offering in this holiday catalog. 

Did you catch the first way I showed how to alter and use this paper?  If not, be sure to catch that HERE.

So my 2nd way…. Color the flocking with Stampin' Blends Alcohol Markers:

I carefully used my Blends to color in the flocking and then backed it onto a Thick Whisper White Card stock base helped make it stand out.  Be careful if your Blends marker is newer, you only need to use a light touch.
