When I saw today's challenge was to make a flower pot pocket card I was very excited!!! I have been making my own crocheted flowers since I discovered them in the SU catty a week or two ago. My DS#2 keeps asking what am I going to do with all those flowers, now when he gets home from school today I can show him! I needed some greens so I made the little leaves to go with them! The flowers are attached with the rhinestone brads and the leaves with very sticky glue dots. I sponged my flower pot and tag punch. I put an eyelet on the tag and ran my ribbon thru it before tying. I Believe this will be the card i give my Mom this year for Mother's Day. She will Love it, and she is the one who taught me how to crochet when I was a teenager! Thanks for looking and let me know what you think!

This is so precious! And I love the story too- your mom will be so blessed! The flowers reminded me of my own sweet mom, who also taught me to crochet. Beautiful card and memories! tfs
