Appreciation Flower Pocket Gifts

I am so happy to be a guest over on Eileen Hull's Blog to share these amazingly cute Flower Pocket Thank You gifts. Back at CHA in January I was fortunate to be part of a group of makers who taught Make N Takes in Eileen's Booth, complete with her vintage camper Scotty. Eileen shared one of her extras for this new die coming out with me - happy me! As a Director for a Girl Scout Camp every year I am always in need of fun and easy Thank Yous - these hit the mark.

For the front of the Flower Pockets I wanted tiny little pots over flowing with flowers. How cute are these? I added a tag using a Stampin' Up punch, Kraft cardstock and some older Karen Foster stamps. I added faux stitching with my PITT Journal Pen from Faber-Castell. 

  

 I used the Candy cup die, some LittleB chipboard, paper, and an adhesive sheet from Thermoweb.  

After die cutting I cut the sections apart, inked them, shaped them a bit, then adhered using Super Tape down the sides and a Foam Square in the middle.  I used a hot glue gun to adhere a variety of wired and flat flowers in place.

 

I used an older McGill punch from my supply and my favorite Gelly Roll pen from Sakura to add accents to my flower pots. 

   My papers are from My Mind's Eye and Graphic 45.

I used a variety of flowers,some flower making supplies from the cake decorating department, plus some embellishments from the wedding aisle to fill my baskets.

Because some of the flowers are on wires that allowed me to arrange them to show dimension in the baskets.
