Craft-a-Flower: Dendrobium Orchid

I am particularly excited about this release because for the first time, I own a flower in my collection that correlates to an Altenew release! No ‘Google-ing’ reference images! As of this post, I have five Orchidaceae–one of them being the Dendrobium ‘Chocolate Chip.’ This Dendrobium has creamy white petals with brown speckling, giving it that chocolate chip appearance.

To preserve the creamy-white flowers, I cut all the flower layers from white cardstock. After gluing and layering the petals, I ink blended a mix of yellow inks concentrating on the tips of the petals. Then I assembled the centers of the flowers in the same manner, this time making a pink blend. The leaves come from a very old scrap panel of watercolor…possibly from the Craft-a-Flower: Antique Rose project.

I improvised a terra cotta pot using Mod Vases Die Set and scrap Caramel Toffee cardstock. Then I added black splatters onto a white background panel. Finally I used a sentiment from Paint-a-Flower: White Swan Echinacea, but just the Love portion. That finishes my showcase arrangement using my Dendrobium ‘Chocolate Chip.’
