Putting Away Stained And Painted Glass

May 14, 2020 Leave a Comment

Once again I’m working through my pile of retiring Stampin’ Up! products. Today it’s the turn of the Painted Glass Stamp Set and coordinating Stained Glass Dies. I loved the gothic script of the stamp set as soon as I saw it and have used it quite a bit. In addition, the die-cut pieces look great individually, but they’re also designed to work together. I will certainly miss them.

SIMPLE BLACK AND WHITE

This project really came together backwards. Having decided to use the Stained Glass Dies on my project I opened the case and out fell a square piece already cut. Not wanting it to go to waste I decided there and then on my colour scheme Basic Black and Whisper White.

I placed the die-cut square onto a Silicone Craft Sheet and using some Stampin’ Sponge added a little Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the back. Then I fixed the die-cut to a square of Thick Whisper White Card.

Next I added a hole at the top using the piercing attachment of my Take Your Pick tool. Then I threaded some Basic Black twine from the Country Club Twine Combo Pack through the hole and tied it in a simple knot.

With that it was time to get stamping.

PAINTED GLASS

Using Tuxedo Black ink I stamped the “thank you” sentiment onto a small square of Thick Whisper White Card. However the eagle-eyed among you will notice that on the actual stamp the two words are on the same line.

To create the sentiment on two lines I carefully inked up just the “thank” part of the stamp. Then I stamped it onto the card. Next I cleaned the stamped thoroughly on my Simply Shammy that was dampened with clean water. Now I could ink up just the word “you” and add it below the stamped “thank”, with the end of the two words lined up on the right.

Using liquid glue I mounted the sentiment piece to a layer of Basic Black Card, then attached it to the centre of my tag.

To finish I used a dark Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends alcohol marker to colour a large Heart Epoxy Drop. Then with the piercing attachment to help me I placed the heart on my sentiment to add a simple pop of colour.

I often find that keeping leftover stamped or die-cut pieces with the stamp set or dies is a real time-saver. Today was certainly proof of that.
