Thinking of Iris Folding

Hello lovely peeps

I've got an iris folding card to show you today.

I cut an aperture into a 6x6 Kraft card blank using an X-cut nesting heart die and cut three different  papers from my stash into 1.5 cm strips.  I used a standard triangle iris folding pattern to build up the layers behind the aperture, securing each strip with a tape pen.

To finish off I added a sentiment from Visible Image, stamped with Rich Cocoa memento ink.

I would like to enter this in the following challenges:-
Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenge Blog #382 Anything Goes
Craftaholics R Us #22 Gingham

Thanks for stopping by,

Happy Hour for LOTV and GDPR update

Hello lovely peeps

First though, a quick word about the new data protection law (GDPR) coming into force this Friday (which applies to anyone with an 'audience' in the EU).

As required by the new law I have added a Privacy Policy page to my blog so you can see how I handle your information.

Also as required, I have sent an email to all of the people who 'Follow me by Email' asking them to confirm that they want to remain on my mailing list, so if you have received one of these and you still want to continue receiving my blog posts by email then please respond by the end of the month.

Thank you to everyone who has already replied, it's good to know you still welcome hearing from me :D
