I'm expanding my crafting horizons (OK, my card making horizons) by playing with photographs instead of digis or rubber for this card, although the sentiment is a rubber stamp from Sparkle 'n' Sprinkle (now closed.)
The photo of this flower makes it look very much like an iris or a flag but it's actually a day lily in gorgeous purple! I printed it onto low-gloss, photo paper and fussy cut it. Photo paper is heavier than most papers, almost like light weight card stock, so it cuts easily with very sharp embroidery scissors.
