This iris fold stamp was chosen as Stamp of the Month by the Design Team of Stamp N Plus. You can go to the blog to see other cards made with the stamp---the variations are lovely. The stamp can be found HERE. The stamp is F-IR083.
I stamped with Versamark and embossed with gold embossing powder. I used some gold florist foil for the iris fold. The foliage was formed by a Martha Stewart punch. The ornament border was created with an EK Success punch. Red rhinestones were added as berries. A red bow was the final accent.
Not too early to start your Christmas cards. Iris folding is a lot easier than it looks.

I agree with your comment that Iris Folding is easier than it looks, I love to do it...have a few in my gallery. Your ornament is so beautiful, love the encasement with gold. Good job.

Stunning Christmas card! The iris folded ornament is so elegant with the gold strips. Love the greenery and beads at the top along with that bright bow. Very cool.
