An Orchid for Mom

Happy Bellarific Friday!!! This week's challenge was a Mother's Day theme. That celebration will be upon us before we know it so it's good to get the creative juices flowing early.

I decided to use this gorgeous Pot'o Orchids for Lulu image from Stamping Bella. I love orchids...they're so pretty and the seem to defy gravity the way they grow...it's so cool! I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Bella's Bestest Paper and coloured it with copics. It's cut out with square Nestabilities and I mounted it on a Big Scallop Square of Prism Vibrant Pink. I added some stitching around the edges for detail and a smattering of Glamour Dust glitter.

The patterned paper is, ahem, My Mind's Eye Quite Contrary, and I backed it with Frosted Pink then added a Soft Sky scallop piece to break up the colour a little. I finished the top corners with some Pearl Baubles.
