Hi there! I hope you are having a great holiday weekend. Today's project is one that my local stamp club and my Online Cards & Projects Club will be doing for the month of June. It features the coming-soon stamp set, Awash With Flowers. I really love this set!
The technique is called Faux Stained Glass. To do this technique, you need a line-art stamp set (one that is an outline to be colored in).
- Stamp the image in craft ink or Versamark on Vellum Cardstock, sprinkle embossing powder on the stamped image, then heat with heat tool to emboss. (I used Versamark & Black Embossing Powder, but Black Craft Ink would be great, too.) Be sure to use your Embossing Buddy to keep stray flecks of black off of your project.
- Turn stamped image over, & color in the flowers with markers on the back of the vellum. I used Summer Sun, Pumpkin Pie, Regal Rose, Melon Mambo, Real Red, & Old Olive. Start with lightest color first on part of the image, then add darker colors next to the lighter ones.
- Blend colors together with Blender Pen. When you color on the vellum, the colors don't sink in right away, so you can blend them together easily for a stained glass look.
- Finish the project. I backed my vellum with Whisper White cardstock and adhered them together with black brads in the 4 corners. The "thank you" is from Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set, which was punched with the Word Window Punch & matted with a Basic Black piece punched with the Modern Label Punch. All of that on a Melon Mambo card base.

As a result, the researchers were able to recently demonstrate the world's smallest microfluidic pump, enabled by liquid wires and glass electrodes.
