Siberian Iris

It snowed again yesterday and even though it's not a lot of snow, I want it to go away! I want Spring! I think it is still snowing because I have not put the snowmen away (see front entrance)!!! Tomorrow they go into the attic!

So, I thought I'd make a card that was bright and cheerful. I pulled out Siberian Iris from Flourishes - I had not used this one in a lot time and it is such a pretty stamp. Flourishes has the most gorgeous flower stamps ever!

Recipe:
Stamp: Siberian Lily from Flourishes
Paper: Watercolor Paper, Bravo Burgundy, So Saffron, designer Series Paper Prints So Saffron
Ink: Black Craft Ink, Bravo Burgundy, So Saffron, Old Olive
Accessories: Clear Embossing Power, Watercolor Brush, Fiskers Corner Punch, Lace from Jacksonbell Embellishments


Thanks for stopping by!
