This is two peices - the box is printed on white bazzil - the orchid "leaves' are actually the flaps of the box. The orchid is made from the same white bazzil paper cut by Pazzils to form three layers of petals, then I handpainted them and attached to floral wire, then inserted into the center of the box where the petals meet.
I scanned silk orchids which I took apart to get each shape, then traced them in illustrator and imported them into Pazzles at .ai files (illustrator 8).

Every part of this is beautiful - the dimension, the hand painting, and the extra touch of wire for the center. I love it all and it is all so clever. Amazing!
