Hello! Today I have a beautiful Magic Iris card to share. I am so very pleased with this card, I think it turned out so beautiful and just like it was in my head.
I wanted to pair the new Bayou Stencil with the magi Iris to create a beautiful night time scene. I thought it would also be beautiful to use glitter gel with the stencil as well. I started by ink blending oxides to create a night sky onto the white cardstock cut with the Magic Iris Add-on panel. I used Shabby Shutters, Peacock Feathers and Faded Jeans for the sky. I also added metallic watercolor splatters to the background for a starry effect.
For the Bayou vines, I used Chipped Sapphire and Black soot for the fines and then Lucky Clover oxide for the leaves. I then layered Clear Glitter Glitz gel over the lucky clover to create a sparkling magical look.
The opening is filled with Yellow Watercolor wishes paper weather it is open or closed to create the moon. I colored the swans with some moonlight hitting their backs. You can see the actual colors I used for my colors in the video below.
I hope you love this card as much as I do. If you want to see just how it all came together please check out the video tutorial below or HERE on my YouTube Channel.
Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Love this glitter on this card.
If I thought the stencils weren’t necessary for my craft stash… you may have just added a dent to my “craft stash savings account” by showing me why I *do* need them! Thanks for sharing!
Stencils are a great tool! Cheaper than dies in most cases and you can do awesome techniques with them!
