Feature Friday - Rose's World

Thank God it's Friday, that is all I have to say about that!

Today you get a two for one. I wanted to show you the gorgeous flower pot card that I made for the very special mom's in my life...and showcase the blogger who gave me the inspiration. (yes, I know, I jumped on the bandwagon...but they really are beautiful IRL)

Since it's Feature Friday, I will share Rose's World with you first. Have fun browsing her site, she has some wonderful samples. Very modern, clean, and great use of color.

Below is my version of her flower pot card:

This card really was a lot of fun to make. Sometimes the more tedious, the more relaxing it can be. I used the texturz plates on creamy caramel card stock for the pot itself to add a little interest and then sponged over it with creamy caramel to make the embossing pop and the edges of the pot to give it an aged look. (Thanks Rose!) Lot's of Big Shot on this card, but you know what, that makes it go much faster than it appears. ;o)
