For this week's Make it Monday at Papertrey Ink, we were to revisit a technique from 2017 that we may have missed. I chose #307, Laurie Schmidlin's Faux Stained Glass technique, using Copic markers, the Hexagon Cover Plate die, and vellum.
I used the stamp set "In the Meadow" to make a snowy winter scene.
Die cute the pieces and stamped a sentiment on vellum, then heat embossed it with white powder. Splattered some snow on the tree using white acrylic paint.
What I learned...I think I would be better off with lighter colors! I also should have only added 1 layer of coloring, because I tended to try to fix the streaks by adding more color, which seemed to make it worse!
Such a fun technique! Will definitely try this one again :)! Thanks, Laurie!
This is a wonderful created scene, Kelly! Love the colors and the stained glass background!
