Hello, I made this for my SIL's 50th birthday. I also used this weeks challenge colours, basic grey, rose red & pink pirouette. The flower pot directions can be found under Mondays Try a New Technique, TLC215, flower pot card. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Although I used going grey for the flower pot, I did sponge basic grey ink onto the pot. I cut an extra piece for the front & embossed it with the textile EF. The edge is punched with a fiskars edge punch.
The flowers were made with 2 sizes of marvy punches, and the smallest flower is made with a fiskars punch. The centers are silver brads.
The leaves a made with the sizzix little leaves die in kiwi kiss.
The ribbon is kiwi kiss, and I added a butterfly charm.

Beautiful card. I love the embossing on the flower pot, the 3 colors of the flowers and the embellishments. In other words, I love everything.
