Thank you so much for all your lovely comments on my previous post-I have actually made a card -a birthdaycard for a blogging friend and can share now it has been received.
The background was made with Cosmic Shimmer Iridescent Shimmering Watercolour paints stamped over with a Chocolate Baroque Magnolia stamp and a heat embossed craft mag freebie sentiment.I have posted two pics as you can see the shimmer better on the 2nd one.
