Spring Flower Watercolour (Enchanted Iris)

Hi there. It's reminder time at CAS Watercolour Challenge. Susan's our host this month and she's  wants to see water-coloured 'Spring Flowers' this month.

I need to wait a while to see an Iris bloom in our garden, because it's only Autumn here, but there are lot's of Spring themed challenges in blogland at the moment,  including CAS Watercolour, so I was inspired to make this card.



I used Zig markers and Delicata gold ink to stamp the image and blended on the paper. The paper is Arches Hot Press 300gsm. The stamp is Altenew 'Enchanted Iris'.

We have the talented Vicky as our Guest Designer this month and you can see her card and more inspiration from the DT on our blog. 


I'm also entering the following challenges:- 






Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog! I love to read your comments:)

    WOW - this is exquisite Jenny - love the veining on the petals - a marvelous stamp. I love how you have coloured it, and the framing around it is perfect.
    Stay safe

    What a beautiful iris Jenny - and so pretty in the watercolors you used and the framing over the tan card base - early bloomers are such a welcome sight with the coming of spring! xx

    So very delicate and I like the way the die cut frame draws your eyes right into the beautiful iris x.
