Inspiring Iris part 2

I was going to use the chrysanthemum stamps today but then I noticed an adorable tulip and changed my plans.

I used garden green and poppy parade and carefully inked up the appropriate part of the stamp  so that the tulip was red and the stem was green. I repeated it three times and cut it out using the Stitched Shapes dies. Before popping it up, I placed it on the card to help position the sentiment. If I’d popped it up and tried to stamp half over the popped up bit, it wouldn’t have worked very well.

As I said on my Facebook Live this morning, I think this set is a sleeper. I had it for months before inking it up and I really love it. Here’s a link to my Facebook Live: https://www.facebook.com/MyElegantCards/videos/231395538171654/

Inspiring Iris

This week I’m inking up Inspiring Iris for the first time. Why did I wait so long? It’s beautiful and a lot of fun with which to create.

Inspiring Iris

It’s one of Stampin’ Up!’s distinktive stamps – look at the detail on the irises. I look like an artist but actually, the rich razzleberry part is just one stamp! I used old olive for the leaves and outline (2 stamps) and crushed curry for a hint of yellow. And since Beautiful You was out on my desk after Sunday’s Facebook Live (also on YouTube at My Elegant Cards with Liz Bailey – please subscribe), I selected that for my sentiment. One of my work colleagues is a DJ in her spare time and loves to dance. So this one’s for Anusha; I’m enjoying sending cards to my colleagues at the moment to try to give them a smile.
