*********************************
I really think that the Build-A-Flower: Bearded Iris layering stamp set is one of Altenew's most beautiful layering sets!! In the spring I have purple bearded irises in my garden, so of course, I had to make the irises on my card purple!
First I stamped the layers of the Bearded Iris in purple with Shades of Purple ink set. I stamped the leaves with Firefly and Grass Field inks from the Green Valley ink cube set. I used the coordinating die to cut them out.
For the background layer, I stamped the other Bearded Iris outline stamp twice with Soft Lilac ink. Then I used the Creative Edges: Scalloped Scallops die set to cut the edges. I then used a drop of Deep Iris Dye Ink re-inker and slightly diluted it with some water to add splatters to the panel. I used Jet Black ink to stamp the sentiment from the set.
Next I adhered the scalloped panel to a purple card stock layer and added it to an A2 card base. I popped up the iris with some foam tape and adhered the leaves with glue.
