product spotlight | wood veneer
There are so many different wood veneer shapes and I had fun arranging them to fill the background of my layout. After gluing them down, they stood out a bit too much compared to my photo, so I layered a piece of vellum on top. Love that it softens the layout but still allows the wood veneer designs to show.

Ashley Cannon Newell : I love wood veneer embellishments! I just have to make sure I don't hoard them and actually use them on my cards! So, I've designed a clean and simple card and used some wood veneer. I love how it adds texture to a card without too much bulk.
On the speech bubble veneer, I added a stamped speech bubble. I masked off the arrow part to create an oval shape and adhered it to the veneer. After stamping the ever-so-cute dog and sentiment, I added a few arrow stamps.
Wood veneer can add so much to even the most simple card designs. So, don't hoard your veneer any longer. Pile them up on your work table and add them to your card designs. They're perfect for all design styles!

MaryAnn Perry : Wood veneers are a fun way to give your Project Life pages extra dimension, an added design element or just that little something extra your page might need on any given week.
On my Project Life layout I used the SC's wood veneers in a variety of ways: I used the chevrons on my weekly title card to create a design element, On my This Week 3x4 card I used the Sundrifter shapes as bullet points to highlight our weekly activities, and on the 3x4 North Carolina card I use the Geo Tag shape to mark the island of Holden Beach.
