Haven't tried in in the cuttlebug. I have had success running the paper through my printer to print a sentiment or verse and use as an overlay. You might have to tweak your printer settings to get it to work, but it's a nice effect.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05813175607193063406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4669954828684566159.post-56842254627374342832008-03-06T06:36:00.000-07:002008-03-06T06:36:00.000-07:00Beautiful card (always!).

Cardstock vellum is like cardstock...you could score it and it would stand up like a card on it's own. Paper vellum is softer and "filmy". I like it for overlays; prefer the cardstock for embossing (wet or dry).<BR/><BR/>The new poly twill is nice. I like it because it's very low sheen, unlike some of the chocolate ribbon..great for guy cards, soft like twill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4669954828684566159.post-71867092055048465582008-03-05T12:07:00.000-07:002008-03-05T12:07:00.000-07:00Absolutely beautiful card Julee!

And I have to say, this new set is really calling to me!<BR/><BR/>It looks like most of your SU questions have been answered. If you e-mail me your address, I'll send you a sample of the cardstock vellum (I *heart* it for using it as a base layer for cards or for sour cream containers). Can't tell you about the polytwill (it's gonna be on my next order though). <BR/><BR/>LindaLinda Nicholsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15327701712891348387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4669954828684566159.post-45314811946632477592008-03-05T11:42:00.000-07:002008-03-05T11:42:00.000-07:00Beautiful card Julee!!

I threw away an entire probject last year. One thing I did read the next day was that you can use an adhesive remover to "erase" it if you aren't happy. But I agree...it just isn't easy to work with and I won't be buying any more. Great concept, but it needs more "work" to get the kinks out, I think!<BR/><BR/>BTW...LOVE your card!

I can SO understand about things not going the way you envisioned...it feels like it has been that way for a while for me as well.<BR/><BR/>The white stazon is the same as the one in the craft stores. I am a vellum junkie...and LOVE the vellum cardstock. I don't care for the lighter weight paper, though. It is more "white-ish" looking and it wrinkles very easily. (Just my opinion) Now, the chocolate twill stuff is on my next order! :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4669954828684566159.post-91369635218875866082008-03-05T07:32:00.000-07:002008-03-05T07:32:00.000-07:001 - Yes, the White stazon is the same thing you ca...1 - Yes, the White stazon is the same thing you can buy at Hobby Lobby or Michaels or a LSS.<BR/><BR/>2 - I have both, and the cardstock is thicker, stiffer, and less see-through than the paper vellum. I like the paper vellum if it is going over an image to make it softer. The cardstock vellum would be good for overlaying on solid colors of cardstock with the main image on top of the cardstock vellum.<BR/><BR/>3 - I am LOVING the new poly twill chocolate chip ribbon! I'm working on a swap card in which I am using that, and it is just so smooth and satin-y feeling. It ties beautifully. It's also the perfect size for going thru a ribbon slide! :-)<BR/><BR/>I love your artwork and all the sketches, Julee!
