Another little secret.. the one type of card I absolutely never make is a sympathy card. This one is an exception - a special request -and lots of love went into it.
The card starts with a double cut Waffle Flower Flourish Panel. I cut it once from white cardstock and a second time from gold foil cardstock. I trimmed the gold panel and adhered it at a slight offset from the white panel. The assembled die cuts are attached to a soft Shaded Lilac distress ink panel.
Next I stamped the Waffle Flower Sketched Iris with Archival Ink and used the coordinating stencil set to ink it with Distress Ink. This makes a perfect match with the background.
The Sketched Iris set is really unique because the image is available as a stamp or hot foil. The coordinating die cuts both, and the coordinating stencil will help you ink both if you don't wish to color it yourself.
Thanks for stopping by! I'm still looking for my Iris to bloom. It shouldn't be long! I'll try and post some photos when it does! It's a feast for the eyes!
