This is for Cathy's Shape Up WTUI challenge this week - you'll be able to find it HERE.
I hard other ideas but not enough time, so I went with this Flower Pot Pocket card tutorial, since they are always fun to make.
I add a little folded piece of card to the back of mine so that it will stand - see photo in the challenge thread.
I followed the tutorial pretty much exactly apart from that extra step. Tip - if you try this, make sure that you don't go too wild with the flowers if you want it to fit in a regular envelope. Sometimes I have been a little over-enthusiastic!!

Everything about this shaped card from the texture on the flower pot and beautiful blooms to the pretty ribbon is wonderful, Sabrina! A breath of springtime on this winter day!

I really love the flower pot cards. I even got the die cut to create one and have yet to use it. LOL! Super cute card using the tutorial. Fantastic bright cheery colors too.

This is a fantastic pot of flowers! I like the bow & tag, tying up the card so prettily!! Thanks for commiserating with me & my trials today. I remember those flash cubes too!!

Wonderful pretty pot of flowers! Love the little tag tucked in there. Funny thing is when I looked at the challenge this morning, I had not looked at the samples... I just made my card.....then when I uploaded it and looked at what others did, I saw your lovely flower pot.
Then I was going to delete mine and saw that you had commented on it....well....thanks for liking my card too...You are right about remembering the size of the envelope, but most of the time, I use a 5 x 7 size anyway....

These flower pot cards are always so popular with recipients. You created a lovely one, Sabrina. I like the lattice die cut for the top of the flower pot.
