These are beautiful Paula, beautiful colour combination with the perfect amount of bling, shaping the cutout images has worked really well. I especially like the inside images in the corners, a perfect finishing touch.
I have done my pencil comparison by the way, just finished a blog about it. Thanks so much for your help, you are a star.
Wow Paula, this is absolutely exquisite. I love the colours and the shading. You are one very clever lady.
This is absolutely beautiful Paula, a real labour of love and I love it. Your colouring is so accomplished, the painstaking cutting out and the delicate shaping of the feathers has worked so well. Even the choice of those mirrored gems is a brillaint choice. Elaine x
A beautiful card Paula. If that's what you were beating into submission last night I'd say you won big time!
Wow this is gorgeous Paula. The colours are beautiful but I love the Mandala design very much. I will have to give this a try, thanks for the inspiration. Shirleyx
