Inspire Me Monday: Faux Stained Glass & Starry Bloom


Howdy all!  Happy Monday and welcome to another fun edition of Inspire Me Monday!  I’m Allison Cope your hostess for today!

Today I’m going to be sharing how I created a fun faux stained glass card.  Some of the supplies you’re going to need for this project include:
  • heavier weight cardstock
  • acetate or “clear paper
  • anti-static powder tool
  • embossing powder
  • a window/frame type die
  • no-line ink color
  • and some fun coloring mediums!
Today I decided to create with our fabulous “Poppy XL” stamp set.  This stamp set includes 4 large Poppy parts to build a bouquet of your liking.  It also includes 3 special sentiments.

So grab a cuppa of something warm and join me in my craftroom!

Here’s a quick look at all the cool aspects of the card…


Here’s the inside panel with the starry bloom.


And finally a close up of the starry bloom one more time…


For those who love to know what colors I used, here's a chart for you...



Thanks for joining me today!  I hope I’ve inspired you to create today! Have a great week everyone!

Ally, this is one of the most amazing cards I've ever seen! I truly loved watching the video and love the "galaxy" card and the wonderful card fold! It's definitely a THUD Inspire Me Monday.
