Good morning. Well this week has been back to winter! Cold, wet, windy and even some hailstones! Cold enough that we lit the woodburner - in June .......!! According to the forecast (oh yeah!) it's supposed to be better today. So fingers crossesd because we are hoping to have a day out today. Certainly yesterday was a vast improvement, but still not June weather!
I have seen quite a few of these plant pots around blogland so I decided to make one too.

My Card
Ingredients
Brown card - Bazzill Basics
Cream card - scraps from my box
Pink patterned card stock - First Edition "Love Letters
Damask embossing folder - Couture Creations
Flowers - Spellbinders Rose Creations die
Flowers - Spellbinders Rose Creations die
Argyle embossing folder - Embossalicious from Crafter's Companions
Spellbinders - Classic scalloped ovals
Sentiment on insert - Freebie from TLC Creations
Lace and gems from stash
I added a cardstock stand to the back of the plant pot so that it would stand upright. I thought it would make a nice get well card but decided to type "Just For You" on the label then it can be used for something else if necessary.
This fits nicely into a 5" x 7" envelope but obviously it could be made smaller or larger. I shall be making some more and try different sizes to see which I prefer.
Well I hope everybody is okay, but hugs to those who need them.
Good morning Christine,
ReplyDeleteLove, love,love your beautiful card. The colours, those stunning flowers and the fantastic design.
I cleaned out our open fire, filled the space with candles and lights. I keep saying I am not changing it till later .... BUT!!! Fresh Snow on the hills the other day, heating cranked up!!
((((Hugs))))
