Leaves of Holly - Floating Background
Leaves of Holly - Floating Background
Hello my stamping friends.
I have a “new to me” technique to share with you today, a Floating Background element! The idea is to add an element that seems like it is floating above the rest of the background. I accomplished this task with a vellum layer, but you could use a clear plastic sheet as well.
Check out the Stampin’ Show & Tell I have for you. It’s quick and simple, and you will see how easy it is for you to do this too!

Here are some project tips to get you started on CASE-ing this idea and layout.
Prepare all the pieces of your project before you begin. This allows you to coordinate your colors for both ink, designer series paper, and cardstock.
Then prepare the layered elements.
Here a detailed look at creating the floating element.
Okay, so I think this is a really cool way to embellish a project. And it really is not very difficult. Give it a try and let me know what you think! Leave me a comment, ask a question or subscribe to my newsletter to see more of my projects.
