Iris folded Sailboat

Click on picture to enlarge

I posted an Iris folding card to my blog yesterday!  I had mentioned that it was a card I made about Eleven years ago.  I have been making Iris folding cards even longer than that.  In fact, I think it was one of the first card techniques I tried.  I have made dozens of cards using this technique.

I found out this weekend how rusty I am at some of my card making.  This card took me way too long to make.  I definitely need more practice again. 

 The card was made using a pattern from a book I purchased... "460 Iris folded Cards to make.  The complete Iris folding Compendium."  (so far, I think I've only about 20 card patterns that are in that book...smile)

I used Kaisercraft paper, and a die from Elizabeth crafts designs for my sentiment!

Thank you for visiting my blog today
Blessings,
Jill

  1. Oh Jill! I am absolutely marveled by how creative this is - quite possibly the most cheerful boat card ever! What a lovely fold, one I've never tried and you made one over 10 years ago! That's amazing! Hugs!

  4. You are so adept at iris folding, Jill, and I've loved every card you've made using that technique. The sails on this boat are really cool! Can you imagine how fun it would be owning a sailboat like that!

    Happy 11th anniversary of your blog last week! I'm delighted to hear you are working on bringing back the ZEST of creating and posting more to your blog this year! If you would add a "Follow by Email" gadget to your sidebar I could subscribe and not get so far behind! 😊 Hugs, Darnell
