A simple stacked snowflake on watercoloured background. I like this arrangement because as the eye travels across the colour gets warmer - just like spring really.
The watercolour paper is really heavy and has a beautiful texture which really shows up with paint. I diecut the watercoloured paper and used the cut out for the top layer; then a soft blue pearlised card, then 4 layers of ordinary card. Because I wanted it to be forward I left the lower layers intact and only pushed the 'drop-out' bits in the top one. This is my first try at this technique.
