Stained Glass Technique - Stamping 411

The Stained Glass Technique involves stamping an image on a piece of card stock vellum, and then coloring the image on the wrong side.
I used the Elements of Style and the sketch challenge with Stamping 411 here  to create this card.

Stamps: Elements of Style, Just Believe
Inks: Pacific Point, Markers (Pacific Point to color the ribbons, Baja Breeze, Marina Mist, Daffodil Delight, Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive to color the flowers) Vellum sponged with Pacific Point ink
Papers: Pacific Point, Whisper White, Vellum card stock
Accessories: Square Lattice embossing folder, Scallop Edge Punch, 5/8" Whisper White Organza ribbon, Old Olive button, glue dots, Curly Label Punch, dimensionals

I absolutely love this card! The shadowing and / or chalking around the edge brings focus to the flowers on the bush and distressing the square lattice embossing on the case of the card gives it dimension. One could get lost a while staring into this card. ")
