The idea for this card has been in my head for a while but it kind of took its own direction once I got started.  I attached Whisper White card to scored and folded Pink Pirouette card using repositional glue and cut a circle through both pieces using one of the Layering Circle Framelits Dies.  I removed the Whisper White card and used the brick wall stencil from the Pattern Party Decorative Masks and the Embossing Paste to add some texture to the card.  I also stamped one of the dotted images from Touches of Texture  over the embossing using Old Olive ink.  I re-attached the Whisper White card to the scored and folded Pink Pirouette card.  I scored and folded a piece of Whisper White card and attached it inside the Pink Pirouette card with the fold on the right hand side.  I stamped the branch images from the Climbing Orchids stamp set onto the front of the card and also inside the circle cut out using Early Espresso ink.  I opened the front of the card and continued to stamp the branch images onto the front of the folded Whisper White card.  I stamped the small orchid images as well as the single two leaf image for the medium flower onto Whisper White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I stamped the large orchid image and the two leaf image twice onto Whisper White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I also stamped the two small flower buds twice onto Whisper White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I coloured all of the images using the Light and the Dark Pink Pirouette Stampin’ Blends.  Once coloured I cut each of the images using the matching  Orchid Builder Framelits Dies.  Lastly I stamped one small and two large flower centres using Pink Pirouette ink.  I stamped the small detailed flower centre image over the top using Rose Red in.  These images were also cut out using the matching Orchid Builder Framelits Dies.  I curled the petals on the medium flower and one of the large flowers to add a little dimension.  The two petal image is attached to the full flower using a Mini Dimensionals.  The flower centres are attached using a glue dot.  The large flower is attached to the lower left hand corner of the front of the card over the branch image using a couple of Mini Dimensionals.  The medium flower is attached in the centre of the circle opening using Mini Dimensionals.  One each of the flower buds is attached to the front of the card.  The second large flower and the remaining flower buds are attached to  the folded Whisper White card over the branch images.  I stamped “Thinking of You” from the Thoughts and Prayers stamp set onto the inside of the folded Whisper White card using Early Espresso ink.

What do you think?  I am really happy with this card and feel I will make more of these in the future.

Bye for now,

Kris
