potted plants Archives - Crafty-rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing any occasion card. I have made my pot plant themed thank you card using the Help Me Grow stamp set and dies.

Colours used to make this card are:

I created the potted plant card using the following supplies:

Strawberry Slush card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Peaceful Pine– 5⅛”” by 3⅜”
Basic White – 5” by 3¼”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White, Strawberry Slush, Lemon Lime Twist & Peaceful Pine

Using a flower stamp from the Help Me Grow stamp set I stamped in the upper left and lower right corners of the Strawberry Slush card front using Strawberry Slush ink.

A pretty thank you card made using the Help Me Grow stamp set and co-ordinating Dies from Stampin' Up!

I inked up the flowerpot with Lost Lagoon ink and added another layer of the same ink to the left-hand side of the pot with a Sponge Dauber before die cutting the image. The pot was added to the small Basic White panel on Dimensionals.

From scrap Lemon Lime Twist I die cut a leafy sprig using the Help Me Grow dies and from scrap Peaceful Pine card I die cut a different leafy sprig using the Greenery Lane Dies. These were added to the pot with a mixture of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and Dimensionals.

A trio of flowers were die cut from scrap Strawberry Slush card using dies from the Greenery Lane. I added these to the card front with Mini Glue Dots and placed an Iridescent Pearl in the centre of each flower.

The sentiment, from the Help Me Grow stamp set was stamped, with Strawberry Slush ink on a ‘pick’ die cut from scrap Basic White card. I added this to the plant pot with Mini Glue Dots.
