Medallion cards

This week I've had a go at making a medallion card, with a mounted stamp from Particraft. I've never done one before, but it was not as difficult as I thought it would be! Here's a pic:

I stamped and embossed 4 medallions, 2 in red and 2 in gold Cosmic Shimmer embossing powder. Then I cut out the sections and painted them with Cosmic Shimmer watercolours.
My daughter wanted to make one too, so here's a pic of hers:


She is 11. She chose silver and gold embossing powder, and painted the layers with Cosmic Shimmer watercolour paints. I cut out the layers since she's not too confident with a craft knife.

I may do a workshop or "make and take" using this medallion design (in Cumbernauld) - leave me a comment if you're interested!
