Products Used on This Card HC 224C-PC HC 224D-PC 393388 Blossom Nestabilities This card has 2 parts, an insert and a 'pocket'. I made my pocket by cutting a piece of cardstock in half the long way, then folding it up (I'm overseas, so my cardstock is probably longer than yours, but you can adjust these directions to what you have). Then fold the top edges down about 1-1/2", and cut down from that fold line to about 1/2" in from the bottom corners on each side. There's your pot. I used some decorative paper to cover the edge on one side, cut with a decorative rotary blade, and stapled the edges together, just a quick staple on each side. For the flowers, I stamped and cut some various flowers out of colored cardstock, then shaded them with markers. I tucked the insert into the pot to position the flowers the way I wanted them, then adhered them with either Crystal Lacquer or foam tape (the ones that overlap the edge of the pot have foam tape on them. The buttons are glued on.CREATED BY: DINA |

Products Used on This Card HC 224C-PC HC 224D-PC 393388 Blossom Nestabilities I stamped the 4 different sizes of flowers with black ink on to yellow cardstock and cut them out. I shaped & layered them & secured them with a black glittery brad. I added "lack diamond stickles" to the dots on the flower & set aside to dry. The card base is made using black cardstock embossed using the swiss dots embossing folder (cuttlebug) and the designer paper is "Urban Prarie/Weather Vane-by Basic Grey. I used the pink ribbon where they overlapped. I used a piece of green grosgrain ribbon tied in a knot in the center to add the look of leaves, glued the flower on top of the ribbon and added pink rhinestone swirls. CREATED BY: LISA |

I am a very avid stamper and scrapbooker, and was introduced to stamping at the age of 9. Me and my mom Linda (our stamp artist) found out very quickly that we couldn't find every design we wanted, so Linda started a store... More

but you can adjust these directions to what you have). Then fold the top edges down about 1-1/2", and cut down from that fold line to about 1/2" in from the bottom corners on each side. There's your pot. I used some decorative paper to cover the edge on one side, cut with a decorative rotary blade, and stapled the edges together, just a quick staple on each side. For the flowers, I stamped and cut some various flowers out of colored cardstock, then shaded them with markers. I tucked the insert into the pot to position the flowers the way I wanted them, then adhered them with either Crystal Lacquer or foam tape (the ones that overlap the edge of the pot have foam tape on them. The buttons are glued on.




then spritzed it with water and allowed the ink to bleed. The leaves are petals cut out from the same flower and turned around the other way. The 'dew drops' are small drops of 3D Crystal Lacquer, a great glue for this project. The rose and trim are hot-glued onto the tin (this is what we buy baking powder in over here - cool, huh! I love buying products just for their packaging...)


The leaves are the petals of the largest flower. I cut the frame with my Coluzzle template, but Nestabilities could also be used. The polka-dot panel is stitched to the card base.
