A Flower Pot Card

Hello and Welcome.

Today I am back with a flower pot card made over the holidays.  I made one a couple of years ago with just one large flower but this one is more like a topiary of flowers. 
 The flowers are Prima and Wild Orchids with some fabric leaves added. 
 The flowers were attached to a chipboard circle with a glue gun but you do need to be sure of the placement before adding the glue as there is not much time for mistakes. 
 The skeleton leaves have been in my stash since the early days.  Fiskars and Martha Stewart Punches were used.  Main PP is MME and top paper is a scrap.
The 'Thinking of You' flag was printed from the computer.  Pearls are Kaiser.  This card was sent as a bereavement card but I also think they are nice for patients in hospital in lieu of a bunch of flowers (they don't need watering and don't smell, lol). 

Grateful thanks for visiting my blog.  That's all for today.

Bye for now....
Dianne
