SU Graceful Glass Vellum & Stitched All Around Stamps are “Fabulous”
SU Graceful Glass Vellum & Stitched All Around Stamps are “Fabulous”
Today’s project pairs two favorites: SU Graceful Glass Vellum and Stitched All Around stamps. This sentiment makes me laugh every time I use it! I wish I could pull off saying it in real life… it needs an upper-crust accent! lol At least I can provide “classy” with the beautiful vellum and a little coloring with Stampin’ Blends Markers.
PROJECT TUTORIAL
- Stampin Blends Markers in Calypso Coral Combo and Old Olive Combo color the flowers on the front of the SU Graceful Glass Vellum. Pool Party Combo colors the vellum from the back (much easier!). Dark Bermuda Bay accents the top & bottom (from back). The panel is backed by Whisper White Cardstock and adhered behind images with Glue Dots (can you see them?). It’s popped up over Basic Black Cardstock with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The vine accent is stamped with Versamark Ink from the Stitched All Around stamp set.
- The sentiment from the Stitched All Around set uses the ‘Stamp With Markers’ technique (find tips HERE) using Calypso Coral & Basic Black Stampin’ Write Markers. Cut it out with the Layering Circles Framelits Dies or the 2-1/4″ Circle Punch. Accents are Faceted Dots.
- A2 Card base is Calypso Coral Cardstock.
SAVVY TIPS
- Wink of Stella Clear Glitter was brushed on the flowers after the card was completed. It’s a subtle effect, but adds so much to jazz up cards. I tried to capture it in the photo above, although the reflection washed out the color a bit. It’s really beautiful in person! If you haven’t tried it, I highly recommend it. You may have noticed I use it a LOT- it’s one of my fave tools! It’s a pen filled with a clear glitter solution and a brush tip, so it’s super easy to use. Just “paint” it where you want a little shimmer 🙂
- Did you know you can create FOUR of these cards with one sheet of the SU Graceful Glass Vellum. Yep, there’s four of these strips on a single sheet, ready to be cut apart! Use my “BATCH PROCESSING” method to create four cards in just over the time it takes to make one!
- One of the advantages of buying Clear Mount stamps (versus Wood Mount-ie. classic red rubber stamps that mount on Stampin’ Up! Clear Blocks) is the ability to manipulate their positioning. An example is found above, where the vine stamp was placed on the block in a curved position and stamped with a Calypso Coral Stampin’ Pad to produce this framed look. (The standard positioning is found on the front of the card.) The sentiment was stamped with a Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad.

I love the flowers on this one! The faceted dots are really lovely – using one as the dot on the “I” in Darling worked wonderfully – it’s the perfect size.
Thanks, Jessie – glad you liked it! The Faceted Dots are so fun to use for a quick & easy ‘WOW” accent! 🙂
