Measurements for the iris panel before borders: 1 ½” x 2 ¾”, maroon flourish panel before black border: 2 5/8” x 2 ¾”.
-I used Weathered Wood distressing ink for the cracked image and itÂ’ s a new and juicy pad so I barely touched the rubber and placed the cardstock on the rubber and did a very light rub over it to get that faint image. I then sponged with the Tea Dye ink and fine sponge with a straight up and down motion.
-I masked off the panel portion with a post it and stamped on the flourish.
-Tonic paper perforator is used for the tool distressing.
-The image is colored with Prismacolor pencils and mineral spirits then heat embossed with clear powder.
-Iron Eagle punch by EK Success is used for the corner features.

Roxie, this is absolutely gorgeous! But are you sure you measured the flourish panel correctly? It seems like it should be wider than 1 3/4 inches. Should it be 2 3/4 inches instead? You've got to know that I live and die by your measurements!
