These cards are so much fun to make and receive. I made them standing cards by adding two inches to the length and making a 1" mountain fold on either side of the center fold. I will be giving this technique class at The Stamp Addict in El Cajon, CA on February 26th and March 4th.

Wow, so very pretty. Hope your class went well. I love the pretty flowers you used. I've seen this done, and done it myself, but yours definitely takes the cake for beauty.
What a pretty variation of the flower pot theme! I love the idea of the fold at the bottom that creates a standing card. That is an especially nice feature if the recipient is in a nursing home situation.Thank you for posting these. I hadn't made this type in a while and needed to refresh my memory on the "how-to".
