I made this card for a recent Hero Arts blog challenge to stamp on something other than paper - and decided on a 1x1 inch square piece of glass. To color the glass, I added alcohol inks to one side with a pouncing motion, with the same technique I used on the tile in this post. I then stamped the flower on the other side with black Stazon ink. The background paper was so pretty, I didn't want to shorten it. Since it was 8x8 square, I chose to make this card 8 x 4, so I could show it all! To adhere the glass to the card, I ran it through my little Xyron - and it worked like a charm.
