Vellum

The Character Cafe's challenge this week is to use vellum.
It is hard to see, but the background is actually a pale purple vellum. The flower image is from McMahon Five Designs. I double printed and colored the blossoms and stack them, securing with a purple brad to make the flowers thicker and more 3D. The purple buttons (center one has glitter inside the acrylic) are from a variety pack purchased from Oriental Trading.
