and this one I used is called
Oktoberfest Orange.
I love it the colours are so strong and embossing on
my vellum was a breeze. [it did buckle a little]
My stamps I used are from HLS called
Doodled Flowers. Beautiful set.
Zutter used for my bow.
Wasn't sure how to attach the vellum to the cardstock without
the glue dots showing so added some clear dots over them.
Anyone with suggestions is appreciated.

It's a beautiful colour Annie, the co-ordinating ribbon ties in beautifully with the design. I've not tried Lindy's powders, you will have me thinking if I need them now hee hee!
Hope you are keeping well? I have been awol taking care of the elders as everyone in the family came down with the Flu Virus. Trying to catch up with everyone now.
Wishing you a fab weekend & sending hugs across the miles Tracey xx
They look stunning in Orange! Beautiful card! xx
I forgot to say - using Vellum is tricky. You can use an adhesive spray, brads, pins, glue, etc to attach it. What you have done with the clear dots is exactly what you need to do. If you have anything showing through your vellum, that is the best way to hide it. xx
Bright orange lifts up the mood. The touch of pattern paper is smart.
Oooh such a cheerful and happy card!!!
Cheers

This is so pretty Annie! Love this color!
I never think to use velum, this looks beautiful with your bright cheer orange.
Delightful CAS aNNie!!! Love the embossed flowers with thst plsid dp and the bow! Very elegant and fresh!
I have the same problem, but you covered the glue so vell with the dots, no glue is visible!!!
Big hugs, I'm going to job...
Gorgeous card Annie. Vellum is always hard to glue down, but you did very well here. Hugs, Valerie
Such a happy card! Wonderful embossing of the flowers and it is a really lovely colour. Great paper choice and a beautifully tied bow, I have a zutter but not got the hang of it yet. The clear dots were a fab idea to cover the glue dots, that's really all you can do to cover where the adhesive is on vellum by covering it with something else or wrapping it around the card. Debra x
A very striking design Annie.

I've NEVER been able to emboss vellum. I always get it too hot and it buckles on me. I bought some clear tape one time when I was making a lot of tip-ins that used vellum. It was guaranteed to not show through vellum and it worked like a dream. I've NEVER been able to find it again, so your use of the the clear drops/dots was perfect. I wish I could remember the name of the vellum tape, but it came on a roll and you had to remove the backing.
BTW, this is a fabulous card.
A great sunny colour! And no; I also struggle all the time with velum; most of the time I end up with folding it around the card... Hugs, Gerrina
Lovely card Annie love the colour

Very pretty Annie, I very seldom use orange, but yours looks gorgeous, xx
Love that glorious orange, Annie, so effective on the vellum! Have a good weekend! xxx
Loving that card Annie - the orange is very striking but doesn't overpower the rest of your creation. Shabneez x
Nice card in orange, Annie, orange is the Dutch national color :-) But it's also very autumny...you should ben making springcards :-)
Love the orange Annie, so cheerful and zesty a gorgeous card, as for the vellum, I think everyone else has covered tips and tricks, depending on the style of card I have been known to use tiny staples, on show of course..enjoy your day..x
A gorgeous CAS card Annie, I love the colours.

Such a lovely card!!!
A gorgeous card and a good idea with the clear dots. I think the only way is to cover glue with something x
The embossed vellum looks beautiful Annie, lovely stamps and the colour is so bright and striking. Hope you have a lovely weekend

Fun stamps and pretty orange with all the white! The bit of plaid paper and the bow in the corner is just right. Your glue dots are a nice solution. If I had the answer I'd use more vellum. I tried stitching once and that didn't work well.
What a really happy and gorgeous orange floral design! Love the little touch of plaid papers in the corner as well! Beautifully done my friend! Have a great weekend! HUGS
Such a beautiful design! I love the checkered corner!!!
Wow, what a beautiful orange, lovely flowers and ribbon ! Hugs, Enny
Such stunning colour on your beautiful card Annie.

Very pretty and loved using vellum. I used pretty brads in the corners or wrap the edges around a backing piece of card. Ribbons are also useful. Have a lovely weekend. Big hugs, Carol S.xxxx
Its a beautiful and stylish card Annie. I think it was a super idea to use the clear dots to cover the glue dots. Sorry I cannot add any ideas as I don't often use vellum.

So very vibrant and the embossing looks fantastic. Great idea about the clear dots, which covers the glue fabulously x.
That's very pretty Annie! I love the corner design and that's some great orange embossing powder too!
Gorgeous embossing! And I love the tiny pop of plaid!
Thanks so much for playing with us at Time Out!
Annie, that is a great color and the stamps are gorgeous especially on the vellum.
What a gorgeous and colourful card Annie. Love embossing on vellum. I use a special vellum adhesive tape made by Scotch. i believe there is a spray glue too.
Blessings
Maxine
WOW love this! That patterned paper in the corner is so bright & beautiful ... really brings attention to your gorgeous flowers! Nicely done my dear friend! HUGS
Beautiful card and colour Annie..Loz
I love the embossing and the wonderful triangle of paper in the cormer. Fantastic bow. Thanks for sharing this colorful beautify with us at TIme Out.
Lovely orange flowers, that bow is stunning way to put across the paper edge. I run vellum through my Xyron the adhesive doesn't show up at all on the vellum
its so nice!
hugs
Loving your striking autumn oranges. Thanks for playing at the HLS CAS Challenge.
