Thinking of You with Berry Botanical Vellum

Today's project combines the May 2026 product of the month Berry Botanical Vellum with one of the new bundles from the May-August 2026 catalog.  I do love how easily this one came together.   I was a little hesitant to order the vellum dsp this month as I generally have a hard time using it.  Once I sat down to work with it, it was pretty easy to use and the ideas just seem to flow.  I intended to just make one for today, but I ended up making two just to give all of you some ideas on how to put some cards together with it pretty quickly and without much added to it.  To watch the YouTube video tutorial on how to put this card together, click this link.
