A fun but a little time consuming (!) challenge - to make a stained glass background. I used a background Crackle stamp and colored in the areas with Tombow Markers - moving the color around with a Clear Glitter Wink of Stella Brush - so this is really glittery IRL (doesn't show in photo?!)
Stained glass just naturally goes with Faith stamps in my mind - so I got out a set from Our Daily Bread. The oval is layered over the stained glass with foam dots.
I stamped the background early in the day - but a friend is up visiting from FL so I spent some time with her - then finished up my card later this afternoon!

Great job! I hope it didn't take too much time! I loved sitting down and just coloring in the segments with no real pattern. Yours turned out wonderful though! Thanks for playing along with my challenge this week!

Wow, your background is amazing. I too found it time consuming and you have way more little pieces to color than I did. Love your coloring and perfect sentiment.

I have not seen a stain glass like this one, the way the shapes are - but it is beautiful and you did a fabulous job!!
