Watercolour Baubles

I have a Christmas card to share today...made using an old Cuttlebug 'Bauble' embossing folder. I used it to emboss a piece of watercolour effect paper (from the 'Pastel Watercolours' pad from The Works), then I lightly rubbed a Versamark inkpad over the the rasied areas, and sprinkled over some 'Metallic Silver Sparkle' embossing glitter from WOW over the top. I distressed the edges a little, then matted it on to some silver mirror card...adding a sentiment cut using a Creative Expressions die...before adding it to a white card blank.
