Birthday Card Using Fabric Orchid Head
September 6th, 2010
I was asked last week to make a birthday card for my husbands best friend’s sister. It was quite a last minute request, so i decided to use my favourite flower…. orchids.
It is such a pretty flower to use, stunning and elegant. The Orchid creates a beautiful card which looks very expensive to produce. I teamed the orchid up with some fluffy plum coloured feathers to give it a wow factor.
The orchid is mounted onto matted and layered plum and white card. I chose a beautiful floral pink paper to give the card an expensive look. To finish off the card, fairy dust has been added onto the top and bottom of the card.
beautifull card, love the colour of those feathers

I absolutely adore your orchids. I have quite a few of the different colours but only very special people get cards with these on.
Never thought of using feathers with them.
Great work! Beautiful flower even though its fabric it looks quite realistic!
