I found a large box of various pieces ready to made into cards.
The iris from Stately Flowers 8 by GKD, is colored with Copics: YR02, YR01, YR00,
YR0000, Y35, YG63, G21. I used the Palm Frond stencil by Honeybee to emboss the
background with a rubber mat, then lightly swiped green over the raised areas –
the green shows more IRL The sentiment, Tiny Sentiment Wishing by Altenew is
cut in Grass Green. The sentiment in the strip along the bottom reads “you the
happiest of birthdays”. You is a separate stamp and I had difficulty lining it
up with the rest of the sentiment but I was pleased with the final result. I used
Master Layouts 2 to cut the black mat. I decided a Peach Bellini card base matched
the coloring on the iris best. I’m entering this in Color Hues 84 – Peach and Green and Word Power #4

Beautiful card! So fun to find pieces then be able to use them.
Thanks. Finding all those pieces has really streamlined my cardmaking. I’m just trying to remember when I did them and why I didn’t turn them into cards at the time.
Beautiful! Love Irises!
Thank you
I love this. Colors are so fresh and spring like
