Bring the beauty of stained glass to your papercrafts, without the special tools.

Supplies


Outline image stamp

Vellum paper

Dark pigment ink

Clear embossing powder

Embossing buddy

Heat gun

Markers

Neutral colored card stock

Adhesive

Step-by-Step

Step 1

Rub embossing buddy over vellum. This will help keep embossing powder where it belongs-on the stamped image.



Step 2

Stamp image in dark pigment ink on the vellum

*Alternative-(how I do it)-stamp image in Versamark ink on the vellum



Step 3

Pour clear embossing powder over the image and tap off the excess powder.

*Alternative-(how I do it)-instead of pouring clear embossing powder over the image pour white embossing powder



Step 4 

Heat powder until it melts.

Hint-If you're using vellum paper, the paper will curl a bit.



Step 5

Flip velum over and color the back of the image with markers.



Color the entire image and let dry.



Step 6

*NOTE-I omit this step. I just cut the image out and attach it to my project

Adhere the vellum piece to neutral card stock, making sure the embossed side faces up.

Place adhesive where it won't be seen later. It can be hidden behind ribbon or a card stock window. 

Alternative-instead of adhesive, use brads or just ribbon to secure the vellum to the neutral colored card stock



Step 7
