Vintage Iris

 Morning first of all welcome to my new follower CINDY 

 I have a slimline card today using Vintage Iris from Woodware.

First of all I heat embossed the image in white on a water coloured background -I then stamped the image on a pre-made background in my backgrounds box-made quite a while ago so no idea what was used but there was some texture on their looked like Pebeo Copper Prisma had been dripped on-I then cut out the iris, circle and paper pieced.

The strip of numbers were cut from the inside of a kitchen roll and added two strips of washi tape---yes finally bought some lol.

I then added tape and partially stamped image to the envelope-too late for the challenge intended!

  22. Oh, my, this is beautiful! The background is sooooo pretty. I don't know where I've been, but I only just became acquainted with Woodware stamps after seeing something on Pinterest. Well, now I have several in my collection. I probably went overboard.

  23. Hi Carol, a superb card, love the iris and the pretty background you created, I can't say I've noticed anything printed on the inside of Aussie kitchen towels, but it looks fabulous on your card. Thank you for joining us at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, good luck in the prize draw... Megan DT LPoCF
