Your cards are beautiful. True stained glass has tons of imperfections. With my phone I didn't see any problem areas on your cards, again they're beautiful!!
Thank you! Gee, I don't know, it might make the glaze discolor. I guess it would depend on how close the flame gets to the glaze and how long the contact is. It seemed to me that my heat gun created more bubbles but, bubbles are a fact when using the glaze so there's really no way of telling.
These are beautiful! I wonder what the effect would be if you heat embossed your stamping and then nuvod the interior of each "pane" if it'd give it even more of a stained glass look! Would definitely be more time consuming though 😂
Thank you. Heat embossing the stamped images would definitely add to the authenticity of the stained glass appearance and, I actually considered it... briefly. It would probably make the Nuvo more successful, being applied in smaller areas. I seem to have better chances of success when applying that to smaller areas. It would probably be prettier at the end result, too.
Thank you. This stamp is available at www.drsdesigns.com/ Unfortunately, I can’t find their shipping policy (on my phone, it’s just too small for me to read).
@@catherinepaperart Thanks for the link and the good news is that they do ship overseas at an outrageous price - it practically doubles the cost of the item - but I had to have it so now I'm awaiting delivery. ☺️
Glossy Accents is a product you can use instead of the Nuvo one. I haven't made a physical comparison, but I've never had problems with Glossy Accents. But there is one thing you should never, ever do! Do NOT shake either product. Any shake at all, even one, will guarantee bubbles. And we all want to shake it, all liquids need to be shaken, right? NOT this one! These two products will not seperate as they sit on the shelf. If you find them on their side or any other position except sitting straight just gently set them upright. Give the product time to level itself. If for any reason you suspect bubbles in the product just let it sit. All the bubbles will rise to the surface, 100%. When dispensing the product be careful when you let the air back in the bottle so you can dispense more. Be gentle dispensing the product, get it close to the paper, and make it the thickness you want the first time so you dont end up going over an area later. And it does take forever to dry, but it's worth the wait. It honestly isn't as hard as this post makes it sound. It's just knowing how the bubbles get there in the first place. I've worked only with Glossy Accents with great success on little and large projects.
I did try that and while the heat gun helped to smooth out the stretch marks and wrinkles that heating it initially created, it didn't do anything to minimize the bubbles.
Both are beautiful! I admire your courage to trying the crystal glaze!
Thank you very much!

Thank you very much! There are spots here and there but, I like to think of the imperfections as the signature of a handmade creation.
Beautiful cards. Thank you for sharing 😊
Pretty, pretty cards! Thanks for showing the options for making the image glossy! 😊
You're most welcome! Thank you for your kind words.
Just WOW! Thank you for the inspiration . Love it .
I love your videos!! 😊 the cards you make are very beautiful!!!
Thank you very much!
I love the way your stained glass cards turned out. I can’t wait to try this.
BEAUTIFUL, I am wondering if using a long handled lighter to pop the bubbles as you do with U V Gel before curing it would work.

Lovely and fun! TY
Thank you!
Looks real, well done.

Hi. What a gorgeous card, a beautiful design. Thank you so much for sharing this. Where can I get that amazing stamp and do they ship overseas?
Thank you. This stamp is available at

They also have some great ideas for using this stamp!

Try Mod podge dimensional magic. Start in the middle use a tooth pick to spread add additional as needed.
I've never heard of that before but, thank you for the recommendation. I'll give it a try!
wow, just wow! time consuming, though, with the colouring...
It only seems that way. The images are small so coloring goes pretty quickly. It’s the process of selecting the colors that takes me the most time.

No shaking - that's GOOD to know! I'll try the Glossy Accents. Thank you for the tips!
Next time try using your heat gun over the bubbles.
I did try that and while the heat gun helped to smooth out the stretch marks and wrinkles that heating it initially created, it didn't do anything to minimize the bubbles.
