Flower Pot Cards - A favorite of Mine

These cards are a deffinate favorite of mine.  A tutorial can be located on Stephanie Luman's Blog.
It is a very well set out tutorial with the use of stampin up productsm, I have used the stampin up scallp circle punch to make the flowers. My flower pot cards today are made of Kaiser craft products, mainly Christmas Collection Belle.  I love the fact that I can utilize small peices for this project.  Hope you enjoy.

I was inspired by a few challenges that I combined to great this card, it is for one of two upcoming birthdays, I can't make up my mind weather it suits an 18 year old girl or a 40 year old woman.  I hope my home made flowers count, I really do need to look for a tutorial on these flowers I am sure that there is a way to make them with less glue.

Hope you like.
