F4A171 Iris Star

Photo Details

Poster: happigirlcorgi

Do some folding the challenge said... well, ok! I have been wanting to try my hand at iris folding and figured this would be a good first attempt. I used the website above the card for instructions as well as the template I used to make this card.
White cs base, red shimmer cs, then white shimmer. The papers all came from Authentique papers. Some antiqued brads anchored things down.
I learned a lot from this excperience... as always, new techniques have a sharp learning curve!

Great job for your first attemp. This technique is one of the first ones I tried, and I was hooked. I think it's still one of my favorite techniques, and I learned out to do it at the great link that you shared here.
