Orchid Birthday - Paper Craft Crew Challenges #284

I love making flowers and the Orchid is an example.  I used this flower in the challenge with Paper Craft Crew Challenge here  in conjunction with the Springtime Foil DSP ( I love that paper).



I used the Stamparatus to stamp the orchid pieces, using a template I made by die cutting all the flower pieces.  The images were stamped  with Berry Burst ink directly onto the flower pieces by placing each piece in the corresponding die cut in the template.

The orchids pieces were made into two complete flowers and set aside.  Two leaves were punched with the Leaf punch and formed with a stylus and also set aside.

The card base is Berry Burst card stock, layered with Whisper White and then Silver Foil. A 2" piece of striped Springtime foil DSP was adhered to the lower foil, and a silver trim was added over the seam.

The Springtime DSP was also used to make a banner on the right side. Then a top angled tag with a copper  trim  bow added to the top was adhered over the banner.  The sentiment, from "Special Celebrations" was stamped on the bottom of this tag.

Now I adhered the Orchids - the smaller one at the bottom.  The leaves were added to the larger Orchid on either side.

Supplies Used:
Stamps:  Climbing Orchid, Special Celebration
Inks:  Berry Burst, Black Memento, Daffodil Delight
Papers:  Whisper White, Silver Foil, Springs=time Foil DSP, Garden Green
Accessories:  1/8" copper trim, 3/8" natural silver trim, Angle top tag punch, Orchid builder framelits, Stamparatus Leaf Punch
