Iris notecards

With Christmas coming in a couple of months, I decided that it was time to get serious about making some Christmas gift sets. One of my sisters loves Iris flowers. Her beautiful home is decorated in an iris theme/motif so I decided that I'd make her some notecards with her signature iris on the fronts of them.

The first iris notecard is made with a beautiful deep blue metal looking glossy cardstock. I embossed it with my cuttlebug and used and iris brass stencil and Glitter Glitz glitter.



The next card was also made using my Swiss Dots cuttlebug embossing folder and the scalloped edge made with a Martha Stewart border punch. Again, I used an iris brass stencil with glitter glitz and sticky paper.



I may make one or two more variations of this card in different colors other than blue and then duplicate them for a whole set.



I hope everyone is enjoying a good weekend. Until later....
