Ladys Slipper Orchid with Lace (by Shirley)

Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well.

I have a design today featuring the gorgeous new cling single - Ladys Slipper Orchid.


The larger background was created with Evergreen and Pistachio Distress Stain Sprays.   I over stamped using a fragment from Lace Fragments with Evergreen Distress Ink.  When dry I embossed a lace stamp with white across the top and bottom, also from Lace Fragments.    I coloured the Orchid with pencils.   The ribbon is purple which looks very dark in the photo.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day,
Shirleyx

  7. This is totally gorgeous Shirley and love the new pistachio distress ink and the lovely lace fragments you have used in the background work so beautifully with this pretty Orchid. I also love the white embossed lace at the top and bottom which frames it so prettily. x

  9. Fascinating use of the lace fragments stamp both top & bottom of the background creating a very effective frame which echoes the frame of the focal image itself. The white with the green & purple is a lovely colour scheme.
