Floral Craft - Cymbidium Orchid

A hand made orchid made from Craft Punch shapes although this one was made specifically for the Cymbidium Orchid.
I used the label nestabilities die cut shapes to mount the orchid onto and stamped some quotes from PTI Stamps.
I scored the base card and rounded the corners with a corner rounder punch then tied a top notch ribbon around the center of the card.


A close up view of the floral punch craft Orchid. you can see how I painted the petals on this view.

I love the colours of the orchid, Jak. It looks so lifelike. If my flowers turn out half as good as yours I will be over the moon with pride. Keep your fingers crossed for me! LOL

Love Joan :o)

Love this card/flower... Where would I find the Craft Punch shapes for the Cymbidium Orchid (USA)? Thanks, Con.

What is the best way to "color" the petals of the flower? You did a great job.
