Moth Orchid

I recently participated in a "dimensional flower" card lottery in one of my 43 Yahoo groups (not all active, of course . . . YIKES!!! LOL!!!) . . . it gave me an opportunity to use a punch and a book I've been HOARDING for years!!!! LOL!!! Here's my card . . .The book I used is Floral Punch Craft VI Orchids and More by Leone Em . . . I flipped over her sophisticated punch flowers . . . they look so real and I LOVE orchids . . .
I used a Punch Bunch punch made especially for this flower . . . it took me a while to get the first one done . . . but by the time I finished the first one . . . the others came easier . . .
I also used my new Cuttlebug "Swiss Dots" embossing folder to make little dry embossed polka dots on my white cardstock and used my Fiskars' border punch for the nice lacey edge . . . I think it looks like a nice "girly" card!!!!! What do you think?!?!?! LOL!!!!!
