Today's Friday Focus over at Flourishes is to create a card that '"pops" up and has added dimension. I chose the set Siberian Lily.. I wanted to create a lattice look and couldn't get my weaved paper to stay down so I stitched it in place.
I used my Grand Calibur to cut out the Grand Labels One shapes and the Nested Lacey Pennant Dies. I then colored my iris twice and cut it out.

This is simply superb. I love "Star Gazer" Lillies in real life and it happened when someone I knew got married and decorated their wedding with them and carried them in bouquets. This is just gorgeous.

Awesome card! This is so very pretty. Your coloring makes the flower look so realistic. The background you designed is gorgeous and really sets off your flower. Just gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your creativity.
