ID: MC Sept/14 - Stained Glass Window - Christmas  card
size: 4.25"w x 5.5"h

Created: September 11, 2014
Modified:

I came across a classic stained glass leaded window design and decided to make an eCut of it and make one of my own...

I'm using an Xmas sentiments and a quote from Quietfire Design

 "Textured Holiday Words" 6 pce set; "Home, Congratulations" 5 pce set

I eCut my stained glass window, then scored and folded my card. Masked the edges with post it notes and colored the lead with a black marker, then applied Versamark and embossed with black embossing powder. Removed the masks.

Stamped the linear design around the edges with Versafine Toffee and embossed with Queen's Gold.

Stamped the word "Christmas with Versafine Black Onyx on white cardstock, clear embossed. Die cut with Spellbinders "Polka Dots" set. Hit the edges with a dirty blue sponge. Tied some blue narrow ribbon and adhered it to card front.

On a piece of drafting vellum I pounced a felt pad with "Pool" & "Stream", then added "Pearl" and blending solution. Dried. Stamped the fir trees (Impression Obsession CAC "Pine Trees") using Versafine mini pads in both green colors then embossing with Distress "Pine Needles". Adhered the vellum to the back of the window. Added light blue square rhinestones as faux bevels.

On the inside stamped the trees again using Distress pads "Shabby Shutters", "Forest Moss" and "Pine Needles". Stamped the quote with the Black.
