I love making cards that are unique. I saw a design for a flower pot card on splitcoaststampers.com and I just had to jump with it. I made a 6x4 card and added a pretty patterned paper to it then arranged my leaves that I punched out with Stampin' up's "blossom petals builder" punch (121808 in their 2011-2012 idea book and catalog) that my MIL gave me. then using my silhouette I cut out the flowers and flower pot pieces. I then mounted the rim of the flower pot on blue card stock and trimmed it so that It had a pretty boarder. Oh before gluing it down I inked all the pieces of the flower pot. then I inked a craft stick to look like a stem and punched a hole out of one end then put the brad through the flower and into the stem so it stays together. I then stamped a butterfly on the pot and heat embossed it with a pink glaze. it's a little hard to see in a picture and next time i'll use pink powder instead of glaze. but I still think it's really cute.
What a cute card! Thanks so much for helping us celebrate over at Pink by Design!
