Stained Glass Christmas tree

Hi bloggers!  Welcome to the start of day three.  We have some more Stained Glass dies to share with you and we are showcasing the stained Glass Christmas Tree in this first post.  Again, this one is very easy to paper piece as the pieces are not too small.  All of these look great when done in the stained glass technique of using glitter on the back of acetate too. If this has you swooning, then don't forget to leave a comment on this post.  I have also added the Pinterest button on every post so feel free to save any samples or dies to your boards for later inspiration.  The next post will be online here at noon today.  I hope you will join me back here then!  All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh yes this sample is gorgeous, again lots of colour variations can be used to make these look so different, what about white glittered card or even white laser glitter rather then card, can you hear the wheels turning in my head ha ha, yes I like this and also the padded quilt embossing folder in the background with the little gems added. Another winner from me Sue xx

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue.
Another beauty. It seems a year or so since we had new festive Stained Glass dies, and as our crafty Vonnie mentioned yesterday paper piecing is so relaxing (especially if there are more larger pieces to place, my fingers don't feel tiny bits of cardstock and they can't hold tweezers too good either) but the feeling you get once it's all completed is one of happiness and weirdly satisfying lol. The fact that the collection comes complete with so many beautiful frames shows the versatility and value for money you give us, thank you.
I Maybe on time maybe not today, back to my weekly 2nd home for a check on the everlasting 'alien' on my neck, running around getting bits for our week away plus my keeper needs a nice anniversary present as a "thank you" for putting up with me for 45 years tomorrow lol we were just mere children lol.
So at some point I'll be here to support you and you're new launch and its what's going to get me through the day.
Love to all xxx

A lovely surprise to find we have more stained glass dies today. Another beauty with so many possibilities. I like to glitter behind acetate but find it hard on my hands squeezing the glue bottle but still love to paper piece. Any more stained glass to come I wonder? Thank you Sue.

Helen Bell said...

Hi Sue

Yes, this has me swooning! To paper piece or glitter on acetate would look superb!

Not only is the focal element of the tree lovely but I love the outer frame. The card is gorgeous and looks lovely using the quilted embossing folder as it compliments it perfectly.

Love Helen xxx

Little Largo said...

Another lovely die set. The tree is very sweet and the card looks so elegant especially using that gorgeous quilted embossed card. The gold and the paper piecing give it such an edge and then you have yet another gorgeous frame. We are definitively all swooning I thinkSue.
