Hi guys! It's me again! And I'm back with more yellow, and more flowers! I was on The Greetery Blog yesterday with a TGIF project and I wanted to share it here with you, too! Happy Crafturday/Saturday my friends!
My card features some of the newer stamps and dies release from The Greetery this summer…. The Pretty Pot Dies and the Container Garden Stamps and Dies. The finished card is a white A2 card base, layered with yellow, vellum, and more white. This card is bright and sunny! The idea came to me when the Pretty Pot die came out…. I wondered – hey, does the Container Garden floral spray fit into the pot?? Well…guess what? It does! Nice!
Here's a top down photo to show all the layers…. You can see I used foam tape to mount my flowers/pots to the card and also to mount that top layer of white paper.
To make the pots, I die cut them from Kraft cardstock. I used shades of Distress Inks and splatters to make the pots look like aged terra cotta/clay pots that have been out in the garden for a while… The sentiment was heat embossed onto a banner with white embossing powder.
I used my MISTI to ink/stamp the Windowpane Plaid background stamp onto a white panel. I also used my MISTI to stamp the flowers. Everything lines up so perfectly – thanks to Betsy. I used Copic Markers to add a bit more shading, and then a white gel pen too.
I die cut the floral spray using the matching Container Garden Die. I tucked it inside the pot – I love how this looks!! I wish I had this pot of flowers in my garden!
Okay friends! Last project for the weekend…. But guess what? I'll be back on Monday!! Next week we have this on tap: Doodlebug and Pigment Craft Co! Take care until we meet again! XO

This is SO PRETTY, Wanda! I LOVE the sun-shinny yellow! SO CHEERY! AND I LOVE that you used the Container Flowers with the pretty pots! I also like how they stretch JUST A BIT over at the top of the card, making it seem they are actually growing off the page/card! 😉 GENIUS! HOPE you’re having a SUN-SHINNY DAY!!!HUGS!;)<3
So pretty! xx
So fun! Love the colors!
Wanda, you never disappoint. Your cards are always so bright and happy and so beautiful. What I wouldn’t give to sit and go through your stash of gorgeous cards. 💜 I hope things are better in California both with Covid and with those horrible fires. I always think of the poor helpless animals. Be safe, my friend. Sending you and your fellow Californians my prayers and well wishes. 😇 The Lord is with you all. He is faithful.
