This card is going to Trent, brother of Tina one of our SCS members. Trent served in the forces and took a career break to pursue his interest in Orchid collecting, always seeking the latest and rarest of the species. He was recently diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing chemo.
The orchids were stamped and embossed on velum and coloured from the back with copics. The bg paper is dry embossed with a script folder.

Oh gosh, Elizabeth - this looks beautiful on screen, and I know how much more fabulous vellum looks in real life. I love the hints of purple in that sweet sentiment panel, too.
