STAMPED METALLIC WATERCOLOURING (BLACK)

 Metallic watercolour paints show up beautifully on black watercolour paper. Some brands are better than others as they are more highly pigmented. The interference/iridescent paints that won't appear on white cards are gorgeous on black! To make it easy, I have embossed stamped images with white embossing powder, keeping the watercolour paint within the stamped areas. I even used clear embossing powder on one of the atc's and this worked as well, however, the white embossing powder gives you the most contrast. If you have some metallic watercolour paints, give them a go on black card, the shimmer and shine when tilted to the light is unbelievable!

"Choose to shine"


"Family"


"Beauty in simplicity"
(This embossing is the one with the
clear embossing powder.)


"Destination"


"Too much happy"


"Use your wings"
