Iris Heaven!


This is my card for the challenge at Crafty Ann's Challenge Blog this week - a colour challenge of Lilac, Lemon & Pink.

I chose to use Ann's beautiful Iris image because I thought I could use the colours well with this image. The Iris' are coloured with water colour paints and mounted over a background of a Lilac backing paper from Ann and coloured card. One piece of the backing paper has been embossed with the Cuttlebug Hearts folder. Embellished with satin ribbon and Dew Drops.

This is stunning Wendy, I love how you've pulled it all together and you always colour these Irises way better than I do. Love the touch with the dew drops and it looks like we had another 'twinnie' moment with the ribbons :) It's lovely to see the hearts embossing folder with the lilac too.

A fab DT card, as always, Wendy.
The irises look lovely, very cleverly coloured.
The ribbon and dew drops are a lovely finish.

This is lovely Wendy. You have coloured the irises perfectly. I love the way you've blended the colours on the petals.
