Yes, indeed this is a large floral stamp - stamped three times!! This card is for Vicki's (vdutchr) "So Coral Cantaloupe" Color Challenge, CC592! Vicki picked three colors that are beautiful together! Great combination of colors, Vicki!!
The colors are SU So Saffron, Crisp Cantaloupe, and Calypso Coral. I colored the irises with Copic Sketch Markers that closely match the challenge colors.
I think I overdid it, don't you? The stamp image is large, and I couldn't stop with one stamped iris, I had to stamp three (using masking, of course)!!! Go big, or go home! Isn't that the cliche? LOL
Dessert for the color challenge is "dimension". I used foam tape to pop up the die cut onto the white card base.
I added clear Wink of Stella to the beards of the irises. Hopefully you can see that.
TFL and I so enjoy reading your comments!

Well I am glad you didn't stop at one iris Miss Bev!!! You sure nailed this challenge - when I think 'dimension' I think big - up and out!!! Gorgeous colouring too my friend.

I LOVE your masking on this - it's a bouquet of orchids and it's fabulous!! I think you are way to hard on yourself!! The coloring is stellar and it has great detail too!!

Absolutely stunning! I love the colors you chose to use for these iris's and I love that you stamped and masked this image 3 times (I rarely think to do this) and the effect is fabulous. Love the frame you have surrounding these beauties too. Wow! ~Karen.

Beautiful masking and beautiful three iris bunched together!! Yes, one is pretty, but a clump of three is prettier. I love how you used these colors and came up with such pretty flowers!! :>)
