Stained Glass Rose

Here is the challenge for 04.21.16 at DOstamper stars:

And this is my rendition:

 

 I wanted to try the "stained glass" technique using the Press and Seal product. The jury is still out on how easy it is to use, but as with all things = practice helps! I intentionally left four parts of the rose "open" to pick up the background color, ( to help tie things together). I guess that I would really have tied things up if I had used the Pear Pizzazz for the sentiment, but the Marina Mist on the flap of the envy helps. I'd like to try the stained glass technique with a more opaque paper, and then put a tea light behind it! If there were just more hours in the day to PLAY!

Some important ingredients = Basic Black, Marina Mist, Wisteria Wonder, and Very Vanilla card stock (and envelope), Squares Framelits, Subtles Candy Dots, Rose Garden Thinlits, Rose Wonder stamp set, Stampin' Dimensionals, Marina Mist ink pad, and of course, the wonderful Sizzix Big Shot!
