Flashback Friday

Here's a fun card with a technique that is easily adaptable to many different cards, stamps, etc. If you try it, be sure to share it with me!

Time to peak at another fun card! I had heard about the "stained glass" technique and had been hoping to give it a try for a while. At first I was going to do it for a Club project, but once I tried it I realized it was pretty simple and we could try it at a Stamp Camp! 


Basically, you heat emboss with Black embossing  powder any lined image onto Vellum Card Stock. Then you flip it over and color in the images with Stampin' Write Markers. This technique gives a lot of bang for the buck - and your time! I used the butterflies from Kindness Matters for this card, but it would be absolutely beautiful with a bigger floral image. And, it's one of those projects that you just can't help but reach out and touch.
