Our local florist carries these blocks with scenes and verses for all occasions. This is a glass block 7 3/4x 7 3/4 that I sponged with gesso. The surface is flat enough to stamp on. I stamped the images with stazon then colored with various craft inks smudged on a cd and started out with the blender pen...I ended up using the waterbrush as that seemed to work better. Sponged the sky using the cloud template. Some stickles added for sparkle before finishing off with clear sealer. As for putting the hole in the back for the lights to go into.. that needs some fine tuning as DH didn't have the 'right' tool here at home. I'm going to go to Home Depot and get some more blocks and try to make it better, but this will give some of you something to play with! lol
I have added several updates, so be sure to read through...there is a post on just how to drill the hole.
