Today I am sharing a card made for the birthday of a friend. I used the new Inspiring Iris stamp set which has some really pretty floral images, perfect for birthdays.
To recreate the Inspiring Iris card you will need;
Melon Mambo card base 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right corner
Granny Apple Green 3 ¾” by 2 ¾” – Rounded upper right corner
Whisper White 3⅝” by 2⅝” – Rounded upper right corner
Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper right corner
The outline flowers were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the smallest Whisper White panel.

The fill in stems were stamped in Granny Apple Green ink. I love the water colour effect of this stamp. So pretty.

The in-fill flowers were then stamped in 1st or 2nd generation ink or Daffodil Delight ink.

The border image was then stamped in Granny Apple Green ink in 1st and 2nd generation ink below the flowers but I didn’t really like how this looked and ended up covering it up with a piece of Granny Apple Green Ribbon.
The sentiment from the Itty Bitty Birthdays stamp set was stamped on a scrap of Whisper White in Granny Apple Green ink, trimmed out with scissors and added onto the ribbon.

I stamped the in-fill flower image randomly over the Melon Mambo card front in Melon Mambo ink to add a little more interest and texture to the card. The floral piece was then added to the card fron with Dimensionals.

The inside Whisper White panel and the envelope were decorated with a stamped flower.
I hope my friend likes her card.
