Stampin' Up Climbing Orchid Birthday Card

My friend celebrates her birthday next week, so I made her this card.


























I have used patterned paper from a lovely 6x6 pad of patterned paper I purchased from The Range called "Floral Fushion" some of the designs have a slight glitter to them.  

I also three different Stampin' Up products.  The "Climbing Orchid" stamp for the flowers.  The "Orchid Builder Framelits" to cut the orchid shape and the "Dragonfly Dreams" for the sentiment.

Here's a pic of the patterned paper stack so you can see the other designs in the pad

Week 29 - 52 Week Mini Art Card/Tag Challenge 2017 (Stampin' Up Climbing Orchid)

I seem to be in my very own little temperature zone at the moment, which inspired my prompt.  The prompt for Week 29 is "Tropical".  

This prompt can be interpreted in many ways, but I decided to opt for the floral route.  First I used a Panpastel background shaded in two colours.  I then used a large bamboo stamp (sorry, I don't know who made it, I've had it for years), in a teal colour over the top of the Panpastel background.

Using the Stampin' Up "Climbing Orchid" stamp set I stamped a couple of flowers and centres, using the Stampin' Up "Orchid Builder" die set to cut the images.  I then free-hand cut the stem in brown card and stuck it down, positioning the orchid blooms and stuck into position.  Finally for the central area of the blooms I used my Promarker pens in two shades to add little dots.
