THEME – Anything crafty with current SU products
The butterflies on these cards look almost like stained glass. Here’s how to do the Stained Glass Technique-Stamp with Versamark on Vellum Cardstock, heat emboss with the embossing powder of your choice. Color the backside with markers or Blends.
| Stamps: Beautiful Day |
| Paper: Vellum cardstock, Basic Black, Berry Burst, Peekaboo Peach, Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon- Peekaboo Peach and Berry Burst |
| Ink: VersaMark |
| Accessories: Scattered Sequins embossing folder, Fluttering embossing folder, Blends- All Dark: Pumpkin pie, Bermuda Bay, Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Rich Razzleberry |
| Techniques: heat embossing, fussy cutting, Stained Glass Technique |
Yep, I used the Stained Glass Technique.
Here you can see I colored with Blends on the back side of the butterflies. It looks messy here, but after I fussy cut them and turned them over, they are beautiful!
Here’s a pile of the stained glass butterflies.
My card was cased from this beautiful swap card above.
Head over to Use Your Stuff Challenge this week and enter your Vellum project.
