Now, I must tell you, I enlarged the pot to hold these Sizzix Flowers...I started with a 11" x 4 1/4" strip, folded it in half and scored at 2" and 9" to created the "rim." Next, I ran the part UNDER the flap through the Cuttlebug embossing folder to create the ridges on the pot! Next, I taped down the rim to the ridges.
The inside message area. is 2 1/2" x 3 3/4." I used my Copic Airbrush to color the flowers, leaves and scene.

Wow...what a bright and beautiful card. Definitely feels like summer. I can see the flowers growing in my garden now! The airbrushing is magnificent. I've been thinking about investing in one sometime...it may have to be sooner than later.
