I absolute adore these beautifully watercoloured leaves and berries over the same 3D embossing in the background Bonnie, a wonderful coordinated look, and the white background shows off the foliage and berries so well, and finished perfectly with the gold embossed sentiment. x

This is PERFECTLY painted, Bonnie. Your painting makes it look so dimensional! This one jumped off the page at me. What rich contrast with the white embossed background. Just beautiful!

That is a great combination - love the idea of a die cut matching an embossing folder. I might have to put them on my SSS wish list! Fabulous colouring of the die cut!

Once again you proved that watercolor is your very strong point. I love the look of these watercolored twigs. They look like natural twigs pinned to the base of the card. Stunning!

Gorgeous, love the combination. The texture and sweet pop of color make this outstanding.

Beautiful card Bonnie, I love that the embossing and the watercolored image match. I love red and white together too, but then so many colors look so good with white. The white makes whatever color one is using pop. So crisp, so clean! Hugs, Brenda
