Vellum stamping, embossing, and inking!
Happy Saturday crafters, Echo here with a video tutorial packed with a bunch of techniques packed into one card. We have stamping and embossing on vellum. Did you know you can color with Copics on vellum and use alcohol inks? Also ink blending that looks incredible with a spritz of water. All while attaching it to a stamped background with no tape or glue showing! Let’s dive in.

Vellum stamping, embossing, inking…oh my!
I can’t wait to keep trying this technique with different stamps and backgrounds. The added bonus of no tape or glue showing on the vellum! I could have done either Copic markers or alcohol inks. I just chose both because I wasn’t sure if the alcohol ink would cover the flowers completely. For more of a clean look. Then just the use of alcohol markers would work great. I do love the loose water color look from the alcohol inks. If I was to do this again I might drop the Copic coloring and just use only alcohol inks. But today was just a day of playing and experimenting. I am super happy the tape doesn’t show through the vellum. The skeptic in my wasn’t sure it was going to work! I do have a mess in my craft room from all the different products I was pulling out and experimenting with. Just play days are the best days though. No regrets..lol
Hope you found some inspiration today on vellum stamping, embossing, and inking. If you are inspired by any of these techniques, tag me over on the Unity Show and Tell Facebook group. I would love to see what you make using this kit. Your creations, make me happy!
