That's lovely, jmg!

Donna,
You can make your own patterns just by stroking combinations of circle, squares, lines, shapes etc. with a thin black stroke. Then put a layer effect on those outlines.....one with a shiny bevel appearance. I've tried several and sometimes I duplicate the layer and use another effect on that duplicated layer......depending on the look that you are after.
You can also do a google search for free patterns.

Thanks everyone. I struggled for a couple days trying to get just the right look for the glass. Robyn, your stained glass pictures were my inspiration. I really liked the effect with the orange flower. That's beautiful.

Donna, like Robyn, I've used a couple different layer styles for the "lead". I think on the tulip picture, I used the Wow-Chrome.

And, Robyn, you're right, it's catching!!!

Colleen,

When you are looking at a post you can copy the address of that post (in the address bar at the top of your browser) and then paste it into the thread you might be replying in.......is this clear as mud.......sounds pretty muddy......even to me.

That is gorgeous! Haven't tried the stained glass yet. So many ideas - so little time! I need to quit work - even if it is only part time!
