This is for Kittie's Dare to Get Dirty challenge. I first die cut the orchid pieces, then stamped. I have found, with this specific set, that is the easiest method, since it helps me know precisely where everything goes with the stamping. I created a background, but didn't like all of it, so I cut it into 3 squares to get just the best parts. I cut mats for those from white cardstock, & inked them direct-to-paper with Iced Spruce Distress Oxide ink. I added those to my card, & stamped my greeting. Then I glued on the image. I wanted a sort of visual triangle of greens, so I added green Nuvo Drops into the top right corner, to play off the green greeting & green leaves on the plant.

Andrea, I love how you split your embossed layers and used them in blocks. They are the perfect background for your pretty orchid plan. Thank you so much for making a card for my challenge.
