I've been having so much fun playing with this collection and trying different ways to make flowers using the orchid stamps/dies! For this layout I scrapped a picture of my hubby and I when we found out we were expecting a BOY! We were over the moon excited!

I tried a different technique with the flowers for this layout. With the rounder looking petals I made a large rose and with the smaller 3 point petals I made two of these 3 layer large blooms and I love how they both look!


Here's another view of the flower luster. i also added a few small orchids and a lot of greenery to compliment the picture.


For the title I cut out two tags and layered them together. One became my title and the other one provided me for a small space to journal.


Here's one last view at my full layout.

Here is the step by step write-up for this project:

Randomly stamp the Large Elegant Word Background PreCut Set with brown ink on a pattern paper from the Botanical Orchid Collection. Add a 4"x6" photo to the center of the page. Die cut a white window and tuck in under the photo on the left side. Stamp, color and die cut 3 large and 3 medium orchids. Shape the 3 small 3 pointed petals and 3 medium 3 pointed petals for form two flowers. layer over each other and add a large and small die cut flower center from the Sunrise Lily Die respectively. For the large rose-like flower, shape all the two rounded petals and start layering to form a bud and work your way outwards til you end up with a full bloom. Stamp, color and die cut another large orchid and two smaller ones and shape them. Add loose glitter and put aside to dry. Stamp and ink using distress ink to give them color a bunch of leaves from the Open Leaf PreCut Set  as well as the swirly vine from the Regal Hummingbird Cling Stamp Set and the leaves from the Botanic Orchid Wishes Stamp Set. Stamp, color and die cut the large hummingbird from the Regal Hummingbird Cling Stamp Set. Add glitter and set aside to dry. Once everything is dry, add the embellishments around the photo as shown. Die cut a border from the Border Essentials Die in white and add to the right corner of the page. Layer a pre-printed word border and two tags as shown. Add your journaling in the larger tag.
