Hello crafters! I am really loving the new stained glass collection and have found so many ways to use them. I thought I would share another technique with you today! I have cut three of the
Bonsai Stained Glass out of
black card and glued them all together to create a bit of depth. I filled in the areas using the Creative expressions PVA glues. I used
Spring green, choco brown, black, white pearl, pastel blue and berry red to create the Bonsai. I love that you get a bit of the pearl swirling around in each colour. I set it aside to dry, then added one final layer of the die cut so it covered up any areas that I may have gotten the glue on top of the die cut (and I did!) The top layer really gives it a clean finished look. I completed the card with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/4" x 7 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Lovely card Sue, just perfect. Love that Bonsai tree.
Hope your Trade show goes well and then perhaps you will. Be able to have a break and rest, we don't want you getting ill lovely lady.
Elaine, so sorry that Andrew didn't get his treatment, but at least he will be with Heken today, thinking of you all. Still haven't got your email.
Laine, poor Mum, hope she gets the lump sorted soon, no wonder you have migraines, it is just worry I think.
France's, glad hubby is feeling stronger.
So glad Maureen is coming home today and I love red nails too. Welcome home Scarlet Lady.
Carmen, I work with people who have 30+ years in Taxes, and our Senior Leadership announced we have technology so we don't need experience, there is no hope I'm afraid. Still not 100% so need more antibiotics but a lot better than last week., thank you ladies.
P in Wales, I didn't see the Hartlepool programme, such a pity, think it may have been the Heritage Maritme Museum you say with the Tricomalee, such a beautiful wooden warship at the Marina,.
Daily hugs to all especially all of our poorly and missing friends.
Morning Sue, absolutely gorgeous card I love these dies too.
Nancyd xx
What a fantastic idea Sue and might I say love the finished card. Have a great day, hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, a really lovely card today, I loved seeing the stained glass new dies in the launch and wondered what you used to colour them with, I wonder if it will work using the glitter kiss products ????
I reiterate everything that Pam has said. Sue please try and rest after the trade show, you have had a very hectic few weeks not only with demo's new launch and AP but being unwell - look after yourself.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
I love these dies too and this card is gorgeous. Don't think I would have thought of using coloured glues but have had loads of other ideas for them.
Pam you look after yourself and make sure you get more antibiotics. The chest infection in this neck of the woods seems very hard to get rid of. My daughter always needs loads but my son in law is also on his third course and that is unusual.
Thoughts and prayers to all in need.
Crafty hugs.
D xx
Lovely card,great using the glues to colour it in.
Morning Sue
Love this original card. I haven't seen the coloured PVA glues before, they give brilliant results, and I do like the depth you get by using several dies cuts layered on top of each other
Pat x
Morning Sue.
A lovely card Thank you, I have lots of the glues.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
so pretty... love the colors!
Hello Sue,
You really get to see the Bonsai tree well in card. I like the idea of filling in with the PVA glue. I haven't tried this technique but I do like the effect that you get by using them. I may have to give this a try.
Have a wonderful day Sue and everyone.
Beverly from Maryland, USA
Hi Sue, lively card today and quite different. The glues work very well.
Barbara V
what a fab card. it has so much texture and yet remains a very 'simple' card, hugs xx
Morning Sue. WOW What a fantastic card. The colours you have used on the tree are beautiful and a great card for the guys. You are giving us some brilliant techniques to use with these Stained Glass dies. I love all these Stained Glass dies and they are at the top of my wish list which is huge lol. Take Care Sue and enjoy the trade show.
Best Wishes.
Denise T x
Hello Sue, this is an incredible card, love the look of the PVA glues. All the stained glass dies are beautiful, but this is my favourite. Bx
Absolutely gorgeous card. Loving the look of the stained glass window dies. Would never have thought of using PVA glues on them. It gives the card such a textured look
Luv
Karen xx
Wow! The bonsai tree is so different and the PVA glues give such a great effect. Love it!
Good morning Sue,
Wow, Wow, Wow, that is just a piece of art. Stunning doesn't suffice. Yvonne xx
Hello Sue
This card is simply gorgeous,your dies in this launch are all so different.
A great card for the men.
Jan x
A wonderful technique Sue I've been playing with the hummingbird using Pixie powders I hope to post on my blog over the next few days xx
Hi assume
What a brilliant idea, love the effect the pva glue makes, it really looks like stained glass. I must try this.
Chris xx
Lovely idea to use the glue, i really like the effect
I love this effect. All the new products seem to have taken over from the coloured glues, so it is good to see them used again. This looks brilliant and I must have a try. Thank you.
Morning Sue. With every new launch of designs we are getting use to the element of surprise (the biggest by far was the Kinetic) designs, your Gumball machine, then the fun and cheeky Fish bowl plus cute additions to that, and we've always loved the Stained glass technique you use in other dies, but a background die specifically to show that effect plus other techniques is such a clever idea, but then you twist it, now showing us even MORE reasons NOT excuses to fill out shelves with PVA glue what a change from going to little corners and centre of flowers and the background technique you use (which I'm not sure Paul has seen yet - our Pixie King on Facebook) we now need it to fill the Stained glass dies, and what an absolutely beautiful sample you have for us, I can't wait and am looking forward to more samples of these dies, plus samples of this new launch too. I'm really hoping you have the most wonderful holiday all planned ready for some time quite soon because you don't seem to have stopped since - well I can't remember (and I don't mean a trip to FL to work on new festive samples as I bet that is all done and dusted or nearly complete ! Maybe two weeks in one of the countries you have named your dies after, then relax in a real hammock lol.
In the meantime, I'll say something that will go way over your head lol don't overdo it and make yourself poorly again !
Sending my usual love n hugs by the bucket full to you lovely lady ☺ xxx
Morning Sue,
A very different and stunning effect with the pva glues, a card for the male members of the family. One of my cousins grows Bonsai trees, so he will love it.
Hugs xx

Hi Sue and everyone
A lovely card. Great technique using coloured pva glues then neatening up with an extra layer of card. Love the swirly pearl effect.
Pam, hope you get more antibiotics soon and feel even better. Sadly, it seems like your workplaces attitude is becoming more prevalent these days. Hope you are ok. X
Echoing your sentiments today too. X
Love Helen xxx
This is such an unusual card! I love it! This die will be a great addition :)
Good morning Sue. I love what you've done with this die and the PVA glues, it's gorgeous. I'm still trying to put my wish list in order but I know that the stained glass sets are very near the top. I think we should have a "die bonus payday" mid month!
Elaine, sending you, Helen and Andrew all my good wishes to get through today, you are in my thoughts. Laine, I'm sorry about your mum, I hope her test results are what you hope for. Pam, sorry to hear that you're still not feeling great and that work is being, well stupid is the only word! My mam finally got the scan results but it didn't show what they expected so the doctors still have no idea why she's been so ill. However, her bloods are getting better and she's not in as much pain and might even be able to come home today. Thank you everyone for your support. Hugs to all. Sue xxx
Hi Sue
A beautiful card, what a great idea. I can see lots of possibilities with these stained glass dies.

Wonderful card! What a fantastic use of the glues. I do like the way the pearl swirls around too. Debra x

I realy like this effect, love the swirly look of it, xxx
Hello Sue
I wasn't sure about this die Sue because I only make cards for friends and family and I have such a long list of your dies on my want list, that has changed I can see this framed and on my wall my grandchildren could make gifts. Hugs to Pam. Elaine, Helen and Andrew will be thinking about you on this difficult day. Laine and Craftysue's mums I hope they are feeling a little better.
Thanks for the inspiration. Sue, the only die (so far lol) bought from the new release. Will have to investigate coloured glue, not on my radar yet.
Echoing Pam as ever, what a worry your workplace is (and Carmen's too).
Special thoughts for Elaine's family today.
Hugs for all who need one.

Such a pretty card Sue and a great idea for men's card. At least I can put my cogs and wheels away when I get my stained glass window die, as that is my usual "fall back" die for the men in my family. Hugs xx P Austen
Good Morning, Sue
What a great effect you have created this morning with the Bonsai Stained Glass die and CE PVA Glues.

Hi Sue,
Loved all the Stained Glass dies as soon as I saw them last week - the Bonsai looks wonderful infilled with these PVA glues, the green swirls in the foliage are particularly effective...this must have been so enjoyable and relaxing to put together especially as you would have had to wait for the glue to dry...
Marg - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!...of course that flag is flying for you...lol

Hi Sue,
What a fantastic effect! I love your Stained Glass collection.
It is at the top of my wish list.
Véronique L
Such a terrific idea. Looks really good. Another one for the fellas methinks? Xx
Hi Sue, a lovely card and die. The PVA works beautifully and I too love the way the pearl shows through the swirls. Stacking up the die is something that I have done (following your instructions) when glittering the poinsettia and other striplets and it has a great effect.
'P' - sorry for your PC troubles, I hope you find a suitable keyboard soon.
Elaine - my thoughts are with you, Andrew and especially Helen today.
Maureen - hope you and your red nails get home ok.
Laine & CraftySue - hoping both your mums get good results.
Marg - Happy Birthday! How nice that they put the flags out for you :-)

Love this card - what a superb idea of how to use the pva colours for another use. I really do wish i had a thousanth of your creativity and cleverness.
This card looks amazing and i love the way the colours swirl as well.
Its given me some ideas of how to use some of my dies that tbh havent seen the light of day as the thought of paper piecing puts me off as my hands and fingers are very painful. Thank you for this inspiration and all the inspiration that this blog gives me. Its a privalige to be shown your beautiful cards and details of how you created them. Thank you.
Love and best wishes Sue from katie-lou sweetlove xx
Really nice design! I love the colors and paint carves. Nice alternative to usual custom stained glass.
This one looks a lot easier than making usual glass with Tiffany technique
Love this stain glass card design. The CE PVA glues are perfect for the stain glass look especailly with the swirly pearl. When working with stain glass I was very fond of using swirly pearl looking glass.
One of my very favorites from the new release and WOW! Just wonderful and what a technique you shared with this card.

I have kept waitingto hear from Maureen ! She is home! Wow! Is my lovely friend thankful to be home! Thanks ladies for your love and prayers for Maureen! They have been answered.
Sue I opened the Blog this morning, saw the card and after I read all about it , I pinned it!
It's simply beautiful! Another great use for our Cosmic Shimmer glues. I just love the swirly effect . Oh decisions , decisions on which Dies to buy!
I hope you had a good week/ few days at the Trade Show. How are you feeling now? I do hope you are feeling lots better.
John's Shows on the Glitter Kiss were amazing and I learned so much! Hope to test some of the ideas out tomorrow!
Elaine - sorry about Andrew's treatment not going ahead but maybe that was for the best as he would have felt better able to support Helen.
Trust all went well today! I've been thinking of you.
Laine - such a worry about Mum but they can do so much nowadays so hopefully the news won't be as bad as you fear! We always fear the worst , don't we, as that way if the News is good it is so much easier! Sending love to both of you! X

Just adorable!!
Love it! Mixed media here I come with this. xx
Hi Sue. WOW, WOW, WOW !!! This card is gorgeous !!! I love it !!! The Bonsai Tree die looks fab. Some of my top favourite dies from your latest launch have been the Stained Glass Collection, the Indonesian collection, and the hobnail vase. ( Of course there are many others on the list to. There are to many to name. ) Having favourite dies when it comes to your fantastic designs is just impossible Sue !!! I absolutely love the pearl glue technique on your card today. Why did I never think of that !!! You are just too clever Sue. The colours go perfectly together and I love the pearly, swirly effects they have created when dry. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous card today. x x x
Thank you also for yesterday's fab card to. I really love it. I think your new Tropical Dies look great fun to play with and make such beautiful summery cards. A great stepper card and the addition of the sand makes it look even more authentic !!!
Sending lots of love to you today Sue from Tres x x x
Sending lots of love to everyone from Tres x x x
Oh wow Sue, this card looks just like a pretty picture....it is really lovely...luv Ursula xx
Hi Sue,
Beautiful card! Different technique. I like the idea of filling in with the PVA glue even I haven't tried it. I really like the effect that you get by using them. It really looks like stained glass. I am looking forward to more samples of these dies and maybe a video.
Marg – Happy B-day! Hope you enjoyed your day! You are this blog’s Queen today. For sure the flag flown for you, without any doubt :) .
Elaine - My thoughts are with you, Andrew and especially Helen today.
Pam – We don’t need people with years of experience because now we have advanced technology – I heard this slogan here as well. Unfortunately,the older we get the less employable we are. We are facing here another issue: some managers hire people of the same nationality only.. But, your health is more important at this point. Take care.

Hello Sue,
Wow, the effect you have achieved with all those layers looks like clouisonne enamelling. It's fabulous. I love your bonsai tree and it makes a very dramatic card. You never fail to come up with something amazing. Thank you.
Marg happy birthday, lucky you sharing it with our beloved Queen!
Pam hope the second lot of antibiotics do the trick, you have been through the mill lately.
Elaine you were in my thoughts today.
CraftySue, hope your mum was allowed home today.
Sharon hope you get your results soon and all is well. Sorry to hear you are still struggling.
Laine sending you a great big hug and one for your mum too.
It's a happy day for the gang of nine, our Maureen is home and on the road to recovery.
Love and hugs for all

Absolutely gorgeous!!! Now I know why this die is a MUST HAVE!!!!!!
Gorgeous card Sue. Love the idea of the pva glue giving a pearlised look. So pretty.xx
Hello Sue
You are such a clever lady! This card is outstanding, and so relatively simple! Beautiful to have as a picture sitting on one
of those beautiful easels you use to display your cards at times. I am really looking forward to using my recently purchased
Bonsai Stained Glass die and the PVA Pearl glues. Bless you for being such an inspiration to us card crafters.
Love and hugs

This card is beautiful. I must try this. Thank you Sue for sharing this.
Amazing card. Super effect you have created with the card layers and the PVA glues. I've got a couple of pale coloured glues but didn't realise they were available in such a range of colours.
Marg, hope you had a lovely birthday.
Take care everyone.
Hello Sue, what a great effect. this is a must try. I really miss you being on T.V. and demonstrating. I know you do the videos but nothing is as good as you being there and able to answer questions. Please come back to demonstrating on T.V. again. Arlyn
This is so pretty and looks just like a stained glass

Hello Sue.
Beautiful Card. I love all the Stained Glass dies and really like this technique you have used. I can see a hint of the pearl effect, I can imagine it looks stunning. Thanks for sharing.
Best wishes
Hi Sue,
What a clever idea of using pva glues. It is a lovely effect and it is just perfect for the stained glass window.
I must try this.

I really like the stained glass collection. J have the butterfly design which looks great using mica powders. BarbaraC
