Iris folding?????

Hi Guys

Hope that you are all well and had a great Christmas.

Today's card is using a technique I believe is call iris folding - if this is wrong please let me know!. Although I love how it turned out it was pretty scary to make as you build up the paper swirl from the inside so the front is laid flat on the table hidden until the end.

The simple effectiveness of the card is I think what I love about it, at the moment I haven't added much in the way of embellishments as I am not sure if it needs it - what do you think

Happy Crafting

Hi Guys

 Well I hope that you all had a great Christmas and I hope that all my followers have a fantastic 2013!

Sorry about lack of posts the past two weeks but time has just got away from me.

Well I hope that you all got some crafty goodies under the tree from Santa, I received some fab punches and stamps and I also brought myself a Sizzix Big Shot machine which I am looking to forward to playing with so watch this space....

Today's card was made in a bit of a hurry last night for a friends birthday tommorow, I had completely forgotten in the run to Christmas when making Christmas cards to make a birthday card, so I spent last night quickly putting together this easel card, the sentiment and stars on the base are from Anita's outline stickers, the paper and gems were from stash and the image was a découpage topper I had already assembled (cannot remember company sorry).

Well off to do some blog hopping

Happy crafting

Ben
