Pop Up Flower Pot Card

I needed to make a couple of birthday cards for my stamping friends so I decided to make these adorable pop up flower pot cards.  I saw them on SplitcoastStampers & there is an excellent tutorial which includes step-by-step instructions & a video by Chris Slogar.  They are easy to make but a little time consuming.

The bases & bands are SU Certainly Celery & sponged with the same color ink.  The sentiment is from SU Petite Pairs stamped with Versafine black ink & punched out using SU's oval & scalloped oval punches.

The flowers pots are SU Really Rust cardstock & then dabbed with a sponge in the same color ink to give it a little texture.

The flowers are Tim Holtz Tattered Florals & I had to cut 12 for each card.  Two die cuts are stacked for each flower & there are 3 flowers on each side of the flower pot.  So a total of 24 dies cuts!!  The flowers were cut from SU Wisteria Wonder, So Saffron, Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock then stamped in their coordinating ink using Impression Obsession Min Patterns #3 Stamp Set.  The center of the flower is SU Early Espresso punched with a 1/2" circle punch & popped up with a 3D foam squares.

The leaves are from Tim Holtz Garden Greens & die cut from SU Certainly Celery.

The flowers & leaves are attached to some window sheet material with glue dots.

Check out the link above to the tutorial to see how easy it is to put these together!!

TFL!!
