Use wax paper? Either just wax paper that's printed/painted on, or a piece of regular paper with wax paper over it?

Use some of the clear plastic from blister packs or assotate, then cut to size, draw on design with a thin fine liner, or paint with black paint. To do the "stained" glass, use tamiya clear colours to fill in the lines

As long as the "panes" are small, use "Krystal Klear" stained with ink or wash.

If you've got access to an ink-jet paper you could probably buy some plastic film paper and print out the design. A google image search yields lots of good references for printing.

I know I saw a WD article about this at one point - an early one describing how a chapel was modelled. I'm sure that they used blister plastic and tinted it with inks at the time. Of course, plastic is fairly water-resistant so you might want to brush it with some straight, un-diluted acrylic floor wax (i.e. Future or the like) and let it dry completely before painting it with a wash or something similar.
