3)On this traced design, paint the outline with 3D outliner.

4)Let it dry for 5 min.With glass colours fill in the area within the outline.(The 3D outliner prevents colour from spreading beyond the outline)

5)Let it dry f0r 10min . Decide the size of painting (the square) and cut the rest of the sheet.

6)Get this sheet framed by a professional.They place the sheet between two glasses and frame it. So you could tell him your choice of size and he will cut the sheet himself.
