Etching Glass

[woodysprite.livejournal.com]

Ok, so all the wonderful etches lately have made me start thinking about Christmas. My Bf's Brother's Gf...(Got all that?) Likes Precious Moments, but no one ever knows what to get her because she's been collecting for years. So I thought that if I took a coloring book page, and etched it on a frame with a large mat, it would be kind of personal...





are the kind of images I'm thinking of. I would probably just use the actual girl or boy, not all the scenery around it...

The question is, what would be the best way to etch that? I liked the masking tape idea, but how would I go about that? Cover with masking tape, draw on the image, and cut out..but cut out what exactly? Just the outlines? Or would that be too difficult? Maybe leave just the lines?

HELP! PLEASE!
