Pot Full of Flowers card

Here is an adorable card featuring a pot full of flowers made using the Storybook Garden Patch and the Extraordinary Flora stamp set and dies. It was inspired by a card designed by Dena Rekow of the Creativity Cave – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWzhWu9rR_8. I loved the layout and have used different stamp sets and dies to create my version.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

To recreate the pot fill of flowers card, you will need:

Cloud Cover card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Secret Sea card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Basic White card – 4¼” by 3¼”
Secret Sea card – 1⅜” by ⅜”
Scrap Basic White card

 

I embossed either side of one 5½” by 3¾” pieces of Basic White card using the textured die from the Cheers & Sips Dies. A length of retired Lemon Lolly Ribbon was wrapped around the panel and the whole piece was glued to the Secret Sea layer and then to the Cloud Cover card front.
