I found the idea on this blog HERE.
You pick a stamp that doesn't have to much detail, I think that would be a bit hard to trace. You stamp your stamp using versamark ink, then you go over those lines with your stylus using a mat or mouse pad, I used a piece of craft foam I had. Going over it once again helps bring the lines out better. I used the same stamp to stamp my flower onto pink cardstock. I put some adhesive behind the flower and sentiment but also used brads in the corners to attach my vellum to my dark piece of pink card stock behind the vellum. Topped it off with pearls.

Have a wonderful and creative weekend!

It turned out beautifully!
You've created a beautiful effect! It reminds me of peregamo which is done on parchment paper, not that I've ever tried it. Your card is so pretty!
What a great technique ... looks awesome! Thanks for beautiful inspiration my friend! My mojo is lacking at the moment so I can't tell you how much I appreciate you sparking interest in my brain right now! LOL
What a great technique -- your card turned out beautifully! I love the tiny pearls you added in the center of your flowers!
So pretty, so delicate! I love how they co-ordinate! Great technique!
You always experiment with such fabulous techniques which seem to always result in a beautiful card. Love those flowers, Connie.
Beautiful work. This is an awesome challenge. The results are stunning. It's a nice way to bring out the unused vellum.
A very nice card Connie.
All the best Jan
Hi, Connie! I love your gorgeous card and thanks for sharing how you created the embossed vellum! Big hugs, sweet lady!
This is just the sort of card I like, Connie, so pretty. I need to make a couple of cards this week, for my niece and nephew, and I'm inspired by the colors you've chosen.
