Pot Full Of Flowers Card

Posted on March 17, 2026March 16, 2026 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a pretty card featuring a pot full of flowers made using the Help Me Grow stamp set and dies.

Colours used to make this card are:

I created the pot of flowers card using the following supplies:

Fresh Freesia card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Fresh Freesia – 5 ½” or 3 ¾”
Mossy Meadow – 4¾” by 3½”
Basic White – 4½” by 3¼”
Basic White – ⅞” by ⅜”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White, Granny Apple Green and Mossy Meadow

I embossed the panel of Fresh Freesia card using the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder. I wrapped a length of retired Lemon Lolly Twine around the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape before adhering it to the Fresh Freesia card front.

On scrap Basic White card, I stamped the flowerpot. I inked it with Cajun Craze ink, stamped off once on scrap paper and added Mossy Meadow ink with a Sponge Dauber to the right side before stamping it onto scrap Basic White card. The pot was then die cut using the Help Me Grow dies. I used the craft knife attachment for the Take Your Pick Tool to cut a slit in the top of the plant pot and

From the smaller panel of Basic White I die cut an arch using the Everyday Arches dies. I also die cut a larger arch from the panel of Mossy Meadow card. These were glued together and added to the card front on Mini Glue Dots.

From scrap Mossy Meadow card, I die cut the leafy sprig. I also die cut a leafy spray, from the Greenery Lane dies, from scrap Granny Apple Green card. These were tucked into the slit of the flowerpot. The pot and leaves were then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.

Using flower dies from the Help Me Grow and Greenery Lane sets I die cut flowers from scrap Lemon Lolly and Fresh Freesia card. These were added with Mini Glue Dots and Antique Pearls added to the centres of the Lemon Lolly flowers.

To recreate the bobble hats card, you will need:

Melon Mambo card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”

The piece of 2 tone Misty Moonlight card was embossed using the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder. I used a sanding block to sand down the surface of the light Misty moonlight panel to reveal the inner white core. The embossed piece was then adhered to the piece of Lemon Lolly card.

I die cut a stitched circle from the square of Basic White card using the Stylish Shapes dies. The sentiment, from the Tractor & Co stamp set was stamped in Misty Moonlight ink onto the die cut circle.

The bobble hat was stamped in the centre of the die cut circle with Secret Sea ink. The same image was then stamped onto a piece of Masking Paper and fussy cut out. The mask was placed over the stamped hat and the image was stamped again on either side before the mask was removed.

Using the following Blends Pens I coloured in the images – Lemon Lolly, Melon Mambo, Azure Afternoon and Misty Moonlight. The decorated circle was then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals. A trio of Rainbow Dots finished the card.
