Matted and Layered Bird

There's a new challenge in town - Back to Basics - and the challenge is 'matting and layering'. These days, I make a lot of one or two layer cards, but I do think that matting and layering is a simple way of getting a more 'luxe' look.

Here I gold embossed a Hobby Art bird on black card and watercoloured it with Pearl-Ex paints. The sentiment is Hero Arts.

I'd also like to enter Make My Monday , embossing.

    Your water coloring is pretty and ‘luxe’ is a great word to describe your card, it’s awesome!

    I honestly thought that bird was done with fabric... It's amazing! Lovely card!
