Funky Flower Pot

You may have seen, as I have, various incarnations of an adorable flower pot card making its way around the internet in recent times.

The first such one I saw was an amazing swap card at one of our team days a few months ago from my lovely friend and team member Tracey, using Flower Fusion felt flowers.

Since then I have seen all sorts of varieties.  Some stamped, some more with Flower Fusion, some Die Cut Blooms here and there, the possibilities are endless!

So being the bandwagon jumper-on-erer that I am, I decided that the 6th birthday of one of my big girl’s sweet little mates was the perfect time to get on board!

I am loving Petal Pizzazz to BITS, and it was the perfect set for a bright and cheery flower pot for the bright and cheery birthday girl in question :)

    Ooohhh now this is VERY lovely!!!! Perfect for a little birthday card.
    Now… do I really have to tell you what my current ‘Band-Wagoness’ is???? Why of course it’s a combination of Trendy Trees and the frenzy that is Circle Circus…. however I’ve not combined the two yet… oooh that could make for quite a busy card.

    Gorgeous card Sair.

    Heya Sarah. I have to admit to my band wagon is a non SU one (and it was my first!!) I purchased 2 Magnolia stamps and love them to pieces!! (sad but true). Good thing is I can compliment them with SU things….but due to the GEC….I’m riding this band wagon a couple of times around the block!! LOL

    This is gorgeous, Sarah; what a lucky little 6 year old! Love the citrus-y (I’m sure that’s a real word) colours. Hmm, the Upsy Daisy bandwagon is well and truly parked at my house at the moment!! LOVE that set! Fantastic job with the flower pot card, lovey.

    I must admit to only jumping on the whole stampin’ train late last year and so many bandwagons have passed by my head’s a whirl, lol! I’ve just found your site and am really enjoying your creative flair :) I’m certain I shall catch a ‘current’ bandwagon soon……only just found “Black Magic” LOL! Ah my wish list grows…… :D

    I just love these little flower pot cards. Well done. I’m loving the Friends 24-7 stamp set from Stampin’ Up but I’m hating that I haven’t had the time lately to really get my teeth into it. I have a lot of male birthday cards I have to do and I struggle with those as I love all things pretty with ribbons and flowers. I love visitng your site Sarah. Congrats.
    Kylie.
