Lawn Fawn February Inspiration & Release Week: Magic Iris

Hello! Thanks for joining me for Lawn Fawn Inspiration and Release week! All of the new spring products will be available for purchase on February 20th.  This week we are featuring some of the new goodies (with more to be featured in the coming months) and today is all about the new and super amazing Magic Iris die.  I have two projects to share with the new Magic Iris die today.  First up is my fun ladybug card.  I will be making a video tutorial for this project very soon, so stay tuned for that.

I used the basic Magic Iris die (no add-ons) to create this card.  I cut out 6 of the large leaves from Hey Lady and used them to decorate the front of my iris.  I also stamped the leaves on the inserts that move so that it looks like the leaves ore opening up to reveal what is behind them.  For the large magnifying glass I used the largest of the new Stitched Balloon Frames cut from some new grey shimmer cardstock (part of the shimmer cardstock neutrals pack) and a popsicle stick from I Scream, You Scream for the handle.

When the Magic Iris opens it reveals the magnified Ladybug hiding behind the leaves. This big bug was created using the Tiny Gift Box Ladybug Add-on dies. I used Hello Sunshine Remix papers for the background and sentiment banner.  I also sprinkled around some small ladybugs from Hey Lady to complete the card.

My second project using the Magic Iris is a fun mini album.  I used the Magic Iris on the front of this 5×7 chipboard album to create a camera.  I added pieces of chipboard to the top to create the shutter button and view window. I also added buttons and embellishments to represent various parts of a camera.

The iris opens to reveal a heart but it would be great to put a picture inside or the title of the album. At the time I created this cover I was not sure what pictures/theme I was going to use so I kept the inside of my iris more generic. I used Hello Sunshine Remix papers for the entire album (which I will share more of on Monday when we focus on this new paper collection). On a separate note, if you want to see this album in person it will be traveling with my dear friend Jenn Shurkus as she teaches her Lawn Fawn classes this spring.  { check out her class schedule HERE }

Be sure to check out the Magic Iris intro video to see just how to construct this fun new interactive element with these new dies. It’s so easy and fun! Also be sure to check out the Lawn Fawn Blog for more Magic Iris inspiration from the Design Team.

Thanks for stopping by today!
