Vellum Milk Cartons

Wow - this posting is really late!!! So sorry, the acetate version was a BUST - had to trash it.....ever have one of those day?...I wasn't happy with how it turned out - actually it didn't turn out. I prefer this Card Stock Vellum version - it turned out much better than I thought, a bit more "elegant' than I thought. I made 3 versions using the textured folders. These would probably look OK using solid card stock, too. Which one do you like?

Bottom side of cartons are not embossed:

Very Vanilla Version:

Pretty in Pink Version:

The recipe for the Vellum Milk Carton: Clear plate, die, vellum, Premium Crease Pad (see how I marked mine so I don't get confused?), 2 shims, clear plate.

Yippee: Cut vellum with the fold lines!!! This is what we call "success":

The sandwich recipe to emboss Vellum: Tab1, clear plate, embossing folder with milk carton in between, clear plate on top. The textured folder will not fit the fulllength of the milk carton. You will need to run it through the Big Shot again but only in the spot that is not embossed.

The embossed vellum looks like this. The bottom flaps were not embossed.

Lightly crease folds, secure with sticky tape:

Secure Leaf (as shown) and butterflies with mini Glue dots:

Stamp and punch message. Secure under the clip.
