I’m with you – I love the bold colours on the black background. They pop so much! You were very clever to heat emboss the first flower though, that’s the kind of matchy-matchy that I like!

It’s a bold colour combo but one that works beautifully especially on the white and the addition of the gold hoop finishes it off beautifully. Your water colouring is lovely as well

Catherine, your cards are gorgeous! I love the soft and pretty colours on card 1. Gorgeous Grape looks amazing, water coloured. And that black on card 2 is just WOW! I can’t pick a favourite – I love them both! xx

Both of your cards are gorgeous Catherine. Like you, I do think that I like the brighter version slightly better than the watercolored one. The embossed black background really does make the flowers pop.

Oh what gorgeous watercolouring and the addition of the gold hoop sure does look stunning against that white background, but both lovely cards.

In reply to CHRISTINE BLAIN.

Ditto what Christine said 🙂
I DO like how much the bright colours pop against the black, it is a real statement. But I will always favour white on white layers – it’s just so elegant and understated.
Very clever of you to think to white emboss the larger image so your outlines all matched!

I favour the white also, but it’s just my opinion. Great stamp set to use for this colour.

Such gorgeous cards Cathy. Great colour combo. It’s really good seeing them against both the white and the black. Both lovely. Like you I went to watercolouring in an attempt to soften the bright colour – your results look beautiful and are my favourite. xxx

Those colours really do pop against black, Cathy … but my favourite of your two cards is the one with the white background. Lovely use of a stamp set that I just don’t know what to do with! You’ve showcased Gorgeous Grape beautifully.
