Ooooh I Made A Card!!!

 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.

What a shame we cannot see the true beauty of this card - shimmer really does not photograph very well. I bet it looks stunning and your friend was delighted to receive it. (The magnolia stamp is a beauty - another one for the wish list.)

Have a great weekend.

Dionne xx

Gerrina said...
