This is for F4A63 to make a pocket card. I haven't made a pocket card for a long time so I went to the SCS resource page and looked for a tutorial to try something new. I found this fun Flower Pot Pocket card tutorial and had to give it a try. Flower Pot Pocket Card Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers
Sentiment: If I had a flower for everytime I thought of you, I could walk in my garden forever.
I decided to go big on the flowers and foliage to create a really fun gift for someone. No way this will fit in an envelope but would be great to insert in a gift box with some flower seeds, gardening tools or stamping tools. If you would like to see how I make punched paper flowers check out the tutorial on my blog. http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kitti...-tutorial.html

I've been making these all week for my mother's day cards.
I LOVE how you went so big with the bouquet. TLC215 is the challenge keyword number that we used to make these back in April of 2009. I have one left that I'm putting into this gallery.
Have a great day !!

A flower pot is pretty much the perfect place for one of your so-beautiful flower arrangements, Kittie. And I've recalled what your tiny floral print reminds me of, too - some fine cotton that my mother made a big hippo out of .
That card is a gift in itself even without the extras you are proposing.
