Today's card features a Simon Says Stamp background stamp, coloured using some Cosmic Shimmers watercolour paints that I picked up yesterday in a charity shop. I stamped the 'Outline Snowflakes' stamp on to black card using Versamark Ink, heat embossed it using 'Metallic Silver' embossing powder from WOW, then coloured it using the Cosmic Shimmers watercolour paints. I heat embossed a sentiment (from the 'Festive Phrases' set by Funky Fossil) in matching silver, then matted everything on to silver mirror card, then on to a white card blank.
The paints are really shimmery in real life...so therefore a nightmare to get a decent photo of!
