Flower Pot Card


Good morning all...I trust you had a good weekend.  Ours was a quiet one and I was able to work on this flower pot card for the challenge over at Joan's Gardens
Here are the requirements for the challenge this week. 

Make or use a flower pot
Make flowers for flower pot
Use some trailing greenery
Use any color combination
I found the instructions for my card on Splitcoast Stampers and it was really quite easy to follow along and make my own.  I just used some punches for the flowers and a die for the butterfly and the greenery.  It was lots of fun to make and decorate.  Not too bad for a first effort; and they gave instructions for the tag as well.     So why don't you create one yourself and enter the fun challenge and you just might come out a winner.  I love Joan's challenges as they always make me think outside the box and try new things.  Nothing like jumping in with both feet!
Well that is it for me this morning!  Have a good day and remember to breathe!

Beautiful card, Glenda! I am so behind tonight. I thought it was Tuesday and wondered how I had missed all the Monday posts yesterday, when in fact I just never looked at blogs this morning! I know it is already Tuesday at your house, but I am just finishing up Monday! Anyway, love your flower pot and flowers! Have a beautiful Tuesday!
