Layered Iris

 I have just bought a Crafters Companion 3D layered Iris stencil because I love Iris flowers and have a lovely pale blue one in the garden- couldn't wait to have a play. I used blue oxide ink and this is a big stencil the card is 8" square.

This is stunning Carol- what a beautiful stencil and such lovely shades of blue. I love irises too- always make me think of my Auntie, my Mum's older sister, sadly passed now. Her name was Iris, she was an amazing lady- and a bit of a role model for me when I was growing up.
