O Holy Night


This was carved on SLQ,  A fun card for the Holiday Spirit tracker. This started as white paper.  The back is layered distress inks used to emphasize areas of the stained glass. The stained glass image was colored using  inks and water colors.   While the inks were wet a layer of distress candy coat was added.  I then used a squeegee to wipe most away leaving a thin layer of the paint.  Since the inks were wet it helped bleed some of the colors and add depth to the card.  The 2 layers were edged in black and glued together with rubber cement.  After applying the rubber cement to both the front of the back paper and the back of the window I let it dry and then put the pieces together to make a permanent bond.
