Creating A Handmade Card With Stained Glass Look

Stampin’ Up!’s Graceful Glass Designer Vellum makes it really easy to create a handmade card with a stained glass look. Because of this, depending on how much you like to color, your glass can be as ornate as you want! For this card, I chose to go simple with two colors on my glass; Night of Navy and Bermuda Bay.  I used both the light and dark Stampin’ Blends of these two colors to get the shading.  To learn more about the Stampin’ Blends – CLICK HERE.

I chose a Basic Black card base as it is perfect for helping the stained glass details in the vellum to pop out. Interestingly enough, my other cardstock  choice is our new color of Shaded Spruce. The Shaded Spruce coordinated with the shades of Bermuda Bay Stampin’ Blends ink than the Bermuda Bay cardstock did!

Did you notice the stitched embossing on the Shaded Spruce background? This is embossed with the Stitched Labels Dies and our fabulous new Embossing Mats for the Big Shot.  To learn more about the Embossing Mats and all the things that can be done with them – CLICK HERE.

Vellum Accents Add Texture To Resist Technique Background

Vellum accents coordinate with the focal image and the background images highlighted with resist technique at inkheaven.

Vellum Accents Add Texture And Dimension

Vellum accents are a great way to add coordinating texture and dimension to your cards. On this card, the Love What You Do floral stamp images create the focal point image and background images. Because the floral shape in the Eclectic Layers Thinlits coordinates well with the floral image in Love What You Do, I chose it to create my accents. In addition, it has nice leaf/greenery stems to tuck in with the flower image! Since the resist technique background is somewhat busy, the vellum creates a soft, subdued accent.

Resist Technique Used To Create Background

The background of this card is created with a resist technique on glossy card stock. To learn more about this technique – CLICK HERE.  In addition, this background features a monochromatic Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape color combo. Using this color combo allowed me to add shadows to the floral images in the resist background. To do this, I stamped the solid floral image in Gorgeous Grape over the original resist in Highland Heather. After which, I wiped off the excess ink with a tissue once again. The resist background is anchored to a Gorgeous Grape card stock base.

The vellum accents were added to the resist background with glue dots. However, liquid glue would work as well. Lastly, the Stitched Circle and Stitched Label were added with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Tip: The Stitched Label has a glue dot attaching it to the Stitched Circle while a Stampin’ Dimensional is used on the opposite end.
