Stained Glass with Beautiful Day!

I'm hoping everyone is having a great day on this Friday! It's very gloomy here and quite cold but I cheered myself up with some fun stamping time! I saw this stained glass technique on another website and decided to try it with my favorite colors!

I stamped the butterfly from Beautiful Day with Versamark ink on Vellum then sprinkled gold embossing powder over it and melted the powder with my heat gun! After using my blends markers to color the butterflies I cut them out with snips.

The sentiment stamps are photopolymer so I could curve them slightly to fit into the banner punch! How cool is that!

The ovals are cut from the stitched framelets found in the annual catalog! I love that set of framelets!

   

The first card is made with Bermuda Bay and Pool Party cardstock and the new Picture Perfect Party designer paper.  The butterfly is colored with dark and light Bermuda bay and the dark Pool Party Blends. The cardstock base is embossed with the new Perfect Pair textured embossing folders from the new Occasions Catalog. The sentiment is from Apron of Love.

                          

The colors of the next card are the dark and light Rich Razzleberry and dark Pink Pirouette Blends with Rich Razzelberry and Pink Pirouette cardstock. The designer paper is also the new Picture Perfect Party 6x6 paper stack. The thinking of you sentiment is also from the new set Apron of Love!
