Iris in Pastels

Photo Details

Poster: leslierich

I colored my Flourishes Siberian Iris with Stampin' Pastels and sprayed with a matte sealer. The out of the box cutting of the iris allowed more of my new Birds and Swirls Cuttlebug embossed background to show. This is a Mother's Day card. Thank you!

Leslie, Your card just screams Spring!!!!!!! I like the way you cut the iris. I will favor this card to refer back to when I want inspiration. The colors are so soft and fresh. Popping up the iris, cutting it the way you did and the green ribbons adds just the right "texture".
