I haven't done this technique for quite some time... I'm not a great one for patiently waiting for projects to dry, but for the faux stained glass process where Glossy Accents or the equivalent is used, it's necessary to wait until the liquid has set before completing the element.
I cut several of the Heart from SSS and colouring the base layer with Promarkers, then filling in each section with Glossy Accents, I added a few more outline heart layers in white card with the final layer from silver card after the Glossy Accents were dry.
The love sentiment is also from Simon Says Stamp.
I thought the front of the card looked a little sad, so I just embossed a stitched rectangle die onto the front to liven it up a little.
This is for the challenge at CAS Mix Up but I've just realised that I have omitted the stamping element of the challenge... oh well, I'll add it to the challenge anyway and get back to the drawing board!
Amended version to include stamping!

Your stained glass heart is beautiful, Chrissy! Love how the silver top layer of the die cuts gives this an elegant look and the embossed rectangle adds just enough to make this extra interesting! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up!
ReplyDeleteI hate to tell you how many times I have forgotten the stamped sentiment or image...LOL! Now if it was me I would add a stamped "with" above the love or maybe "You" below. I have always been able to fix a CAS Mix Up challenge card:-) BTW your faux stained glass card turned out so beautifully. TFS Hugs..Nancy
