Oh, I love iris! And the soft watercolour look only adds to their oriental feel.

Beautiful CAS b'day card with those rich deep purple iris, Claudia. The stenciling in the bg really sets the iris off.

Lovely watercolored image, and the soft background technique sets them off so well.
My irises are not yet in bloom, but probably by next week.

When my daughter was in middle school, she picked a flower from someone's yard and brought it home to me. I had really never seen an Iris before but it was love at first sight. Today, my front yard is covered with peach colored irises. Your mom will thoroughly enjoy your beautiful card. you remembered the flowers she loves and your artistry in putting it all together is something she will delight in as a parent.

Claudia, this is beautiful. I love irises. Your background looks great, too.
I hope your dwarf hydrangeas bloom beautifully for you this year.
