Stained Glass Effect with Happy Birthday To You Stamp Set

by | Feb 25, 2020

I have one of my favourite cards from my recent cardmaking sessions to share with you today. It features a stained glass effect created by embossing on Vellum cardstock and then colouring in with Stampin’ Blends. I used the Happy Birthday To You stamp set, which you can currently earn for free with any order of £45 or more.

The stained glass technique is so simple but effective, and you can see how I did it on the recording of this Facebook Live video. Click below to head on over to my Youtube channel to view … and I would love it if you would subscribe whilst you are there.

This is a Facebook Live recording. so please be aware it has live chat. I love how this card turned out – and the colour combination reminds me a little of Wedgewood pottery with the Seaside Spray and Whisper White.
Adhering the vellum to the card can be tricky due to it’s opacity … so adding a few Pearl embellishments can be a great way of hiding the glue.

The stained glass layer was placed on top of an embossed layer of Whisper White. I used the Tin Tile embossing folder to add interest and I think it works brilliantly with the embossed design. What about you?
Hope you enjoyed this card … I think it could be be used for lots of occasions, so despite the Stamp Set name, it can be quite a versatile addition to your craft room.
