It is time to make another gorgeous metallic paper flower! How about a dendrobium orchid with 5 blooms per stem. Today I made my stems in an assortment of my favorite purple metallic papers. I used Violet, Amethyst and Punch all in the text weight. These flower are tiny to cut but once that is done the assembly is quite easy. For the full step-by-step tutorial, just pop over to my post right here. Below you can download the printable template or the SVG file for your cutting machine. Enjoy! ~ Lia

Hello I’m having trouble printing the pattern, not because of your link, but because my printer does not print in grey. Do you have any suggestions on how I can darken the pattern so it will appear on my paper when I print it? Thanks in advance….
Hi Janet, I have attempted to convert to black/white – Try this and hopefully it will work for you. Thanks!
