Since I got a late start creating with Theresa Momber's new set, Warm With Love, I wanted to be sure and get a card posted with the gorgeous Iris she designed for the stamp set. When I was little, my mom had a long Iris bed down each boundary of our back yard. On one side they were blue and purple and on the other, they were golden with a deep plum edge. This is how I remember them. My card base is Pure Luxury Kraft cs, and it is layered with Pure White PL, and designer paper from Basic Grey's Pyrus. I used a Classic Oval Nestabilities die, and colored my image with Copics. The colors used were: B00, BG0000, C1, Vo6, Y21, Y23, and YG 91, 93, 95. Sponging was done with SU! Old Olive. The sentiment is on a Fancy Tags die, and is from Theresa's previous set called Little Critters. I added cotton lace, amber pearls, and a fancy enameled brad for accents.
Thanks so much for stopping in, and if you have another free moment, please scoot over to Theresa's Blog and check out another card I was working on this week. Have a super weekend!

I love the vintage flavor of your card and that is perfect with your story about the iris. I have some dwarf purple ones that came from my homeplace that Dad gave to me before passing and then I have some tall yellow ones, and they are growing strong at the momement. Can't wait to see them. I love the look of wallpaper in your dp and the coloring on your image makes me want to just look at it all day. Tfs your beauty!!
Oh, Mary Anne, this card is stunning! I love that you colored it to match the memories from your childhood. Gorgeous coloring! Love the sponging and dots, just perfect for the soft vintage feel. Perfect details!
