Antiqued Flower Pot

Ok- I saw all those cute flower pots at SCS and finally realized they were for the Technique Lovers Challenge.....then after searching for a while....found the instructions to make it! Remember I am blonde-LOL- I must have favorited 8 or 10 others because there were some Great ones! My flowers were punched out of cardstock, sponged with distress ink in Tea Dye then shaped & assembled. They are attached to the pull out tag that sits inside the flower pot. I just love this idea & thanks to who ever came up with it! Thanks to Stephanie Luman for sharing the instructions which you can find HERE
I will probably be making many more of these, in brighter colors, and with different flowers-because hello....I love flowers!
Here are the punches I used to create the flowers,the small sun is used in the center of all flowers.


Also I am honored by Sonya at Appel Quilling to receive an award! This blogging stuff it toooo fun. I get to make new friends, share ideas, and get awards! Life is Great! Thanks!!!!

  1. Lisa this is gorgeous! Your flowers are awesome. I actually thought your flowers were silk ones! You should organize a flower swap on SCS- Can you tell me what punches you used?
