Stamp Off Inspiring Iris on Ornate Layers

Susan, Buffy and I continue our Stamp Off challenge, although I know that Susan has most of her stamping supplies packed up!
  I will admit to being an introvert, so hanging

out at home, crafting,  is totally in my wheel house.

For this challenge, we are featuring flowers.  We had 

some wonderful Easter flower displays, followed closely

by cold weather!

I continue to enjoy using the Ornate Layers dies, and what

better background for a flower?!  I felt that the 

Inspiring Iris set on page 111 had kind of a fluffy look,

that went well with the Poppy Parade Ornate frame.  

I did a bit of coloring with Stampin' Blends and ran the

card base through the Absolutely Argyle 3D embossing folder.

This was a pretty quick card to put together, and I 

decided to omit the sentiment so that I could grab it

when I needed a card with a floral theme.

Thank you for stopping by and please trot on over to

check out the flower projects offered by Buffy and Susan!

Noble Peacock with Good Morning Magnolia

Every once in a while, I have to pull out my

Noble Peacock stamp set (page 26) with coordinating

Detailed Peacock dies.  In this example, I layered the 

velum peacock over Highland Heather, which was then

layered over some Subtles 6x6 Designer Series Paper.

The sentiment comes form Good Morning Magnolia on

page 38, cut out with the die from Smooth Sailing (p 195).

I love using that die with sentiments, as the shape is 

sort of rectangular, but without the sharp corners.

Inspiring Iris

Inspiring Iris (page 111) is one of my favorite go-to sets.

The images are lovely, fun to color and perfect for cards

that have that watercolor look.  I added a layer of

See a Silhouette DSP to incorporate more color.
