Oooh love the snow on the top one coops! The colours are real pretty and the colouring on the bird is amazing. I like the embossing on the second one but I thin you are right...it is not 100% working...maybe change the embossing colour? It needs just that touch more contrast. But the embossing does truly look beautiful :) Hope that helps!!! xx
Hi Nic
Beautiful cards but I think I like the first one better.
Have a nice weekend
