Fabulous Flowers Challenge

Hello there,

I LOVE FLOWERS!!   Yes I admit it!!  :)  And orchid is one of my favorite flowers.  So I MUST play along the Hero Arts Fabulous Flowers Challenge.


Let's see the card first then I'll explain how I did it.


I painted a watercolour background (leaves and stem) on white card stock. Then used the Hero Arts Orchid Cutting Set to die cut my orchid flowers from a piece of paper on which I smooshed Hero Arts Neon Daubers (Pink, Orange, and Yellow) and Perfect Pearl Solution.  Adhere the flowers,  stamp sentiment, and mount on white card base.



I was able to cut four flowers.  Are they pretty?  I used three, so there is an extra to use on another project.  Yay!

The Orchid Cutting Set is available in the a2z store, and it's on sale right now!!  Go check it out Here.  Use my promote code Cindy15 at check out to obtain 15% off any purchase $25 or over.
