So beautiful. The sparkle and shimmer is striking against the black. I should really open my Altenew metallic watercolours. 🙈

These are both beautiful, Christine! Great choice of stamps to show off this technique!

Oh, my, so beautiful! Striking colors. Love that bit of stamping peeking from under the layer on your first card. I vowed not to buy any new Christmas stamps this year and I've held to it. These stamps and your cards are exquisite!

Two gorgeous black magic designs Christine! The poinsettias are so bright and the torn edges add subtle texture. xx
