Graceful Glass Designer Vellum Global Stampers Challenge

This month’s Global Stampers’ Blog Hop Challenge is a 3 D project.  I sometimes struggle with 3 D projects – not always does something creative quickly pop into my head and this month it was no different.  But I do always have a soft spot for candles and tealights.   After procrastinating for a few days, I decided that the Graceful Glass Designer Vellum would be perfect to work with.  This pack comes in 6″ x 6″ sheets (48 per pack).  But I am really not a traditional stained glass window type of gal.  And I really did want something a little different.

Now whilst this was a 3 D challenge I decided that you had to make a card, just because. Each of these projects was coloured using Stampin’ Blends – Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie.

I love how these look of a night.  I used a flameless tealight and a flameless candle (IKEA) for safety reasons.

Tips and Tricks

Some of the sheets of the Graceful Glass Designer Vellum can be cut into multiple panels. For the candle, I cut one sheet into four panels. I only used one panel for this project.  The panel was adhered to the candle using Mini Glue Dots at each corner and in the centre.  (10-minute project)

To decorate the centre of the candle and the card I used a Tinted Faceted Button and a Gold Faceted Gem.  Adhere the button using a mini glue got. (15 mins project)

As I was looking for a different concept for the stained glass panel, I turned the panel 45 degrees which completely changed the appearance of the card.  I was going to add a sentiment to the bottom of the card but I had used the strip of the Graceful Glass Designer Vellum as a test for the Blends.  I quite often find scraps on my desk that I can repurpose as part of the project.

The tealight holder was very simple to make.  I coloured one sheet of Graceful Glass Designer Vellum using the same colours as above.  This is a very simple project.  I adhered 1/4″ strip of black Glimmer Paper (now retired) to both the top and bottom of the strip.  Join the two sides together to form a circular shape (Tear and Tape).  This project would take about 15 mins.
