This is for WT182 where we were to use 'speciality' paper on our cards. I had purchased this velvet paper to use for a scrapbooking challenge, but it was the wrong color for my pics, so I never used it. So this was the challenge for me! If you've never heard of velvet paper before, it has the look and feel of crushed velvet fabric. Just lovely. You can do anything to it you would do with normal paper, cut, stamp, dry emboss. For this card, I dry embossed the velvet paper background by running it thru my cuttlebug. The flowers were cut out of velvet paper with a cuttlebug flower die. Only the white and green colors are regular cardstock.
