Ching-Chou Kuik - Iris Grace

Here is a card I have made using a Sweet Pea Stamps image by Ching-Chou Kuik called "Iris Grace".  This image is available as a digital stampsingle rubber stamp and as part of a multi-image plate (Sheet 53, Plate 248 - Iris Grace comes on the multi-image sheet with Tropical Queen, Bird of Paradise and Sparkling Angel).

The image I have coloured in with Promarkers/Flexmarkers, highlighted areas with my Sakura Stardust clear pen and distressed around with Tim Holtz's Brushed Corduroy distress ink.
I used a Spellbinders scalloped circle to cut the aperture out of the front of the card.  I then cut out the same shape from a piece of corrugated brown card.  It took a few times to get it to cut as it was quite thick but it did it in the end.  I then painted the die-cut shape with some acrylic paint and then distressed.  

The backing papers I have used in conjunction with kraft card are from the Polkadoodles Double Sprinkles of Kraft Cd-Rom.  The the papers/embellishments have been distressed with Tim Holtz's Brushed Corduroy distress ink.  The card has been finished off with various die-cut shaped, peel-off sentiment and flowers with peel-off circle centres.
