Stained Glass Vellum card

Today I want to show you the steps and the final product of the Spring Card we made using the Stained Glass Vellum technique.  The very first step was to heat emboss the flowers on vellum cardstock using white embossing powder.  Then we flipped the vellum over and sponged on color on the back using daubers.  We didn't have to be careful with the coloring here, as we're going to cut out the flowers.

Here is the vellum flipped back over and you can see the beautiful color coming through.

The we carefully cut out each flower and the stem of leaves.  Aren't they pretty.  So soft looking - perfect for a bridal shower or wedding card.

So here is the final result - we dry embossed the white later with the dots,  Punched a great tag out using our new tag topper punch, added some ribbon, dimensionals and pearls.

 That's it!  Beautiful- I really like the look of this technique and I love how the card turned out.

See you all soon.  ~Maureen

Stained Glass Vellum Technique

Each month I share the technique we learn in club - and this month was Stained Glass Vellum Technique.  The 6x6" technique card below is what we made to put in our binders.  You can see the flowers are embossed in black, then flipped over and colored with markers from the back. 

This technique can be done very simply like this or elaborate by using several colors on the back and blending.  It is a beautiful technique and if you stop back you'll see the wonderful Spring card we made using this technique.  ~Maureen
