The beauty of a stained glass window absolutely shines in this set today. Becky Fleck created a BEAUTY with this set Beauty Within don't you think? And the fact that this fabulous set fits perfectly in Spellbinders Nestability Labels Eleven and Thirteen is just the icing on the cake.
I have two pretties to show you today. One COOL and one WARM
I'm just SO taken with the stained glass feel in this set, it's just made for coloring but would also be equally powerful embossed. I had so much fun coloring the different stained glass sections with Copics (Spruce Collection and Hydrangea Collection and Meadow Collection). I love how the Spruce matches so well with Not Quite Navy cardstock. I layered with the Labels Eleven Nestability, and then added the Labels 10 in Amethyst behind. I added some fancy piercing with an Ornare template and added silk ribbon ruffled behind the main image.
Here's a detail on the piercing.
Now for the WARM design
I aligned the card horizontally on this one and gave it hot pinks and yellows. Also colored with Copics (Peony and Sunflower Collections). I added the beautiful trim from the Victorian Borderabilities (cutting it down to frame the sentiment), and the Labels Six Nesties behind the image.
Ribbon is Boutique Cuts (Hot Pink Linen and Sheer Polka Dot in Maize). Papers are SU Razzleberry Lemonade and Pink Flamingo.

Beautifully done, Christine! Love the piercing and fabulous ruffled bow on the first, and the way you cut up the Borderabilities die-cut and used it on the ends of the sentiment is GENIUS! I am filing that away in my "must try this" mental file! ;)
