Instructions

Stamp the two pots in Blueberry Bushel. Turn the small pot upside down and make it into a birdbath stand. Glue together. For some shine add Wink of Stella to the birdbath.
Stamp and fussy cut a variety of plant elements with a variety of ink colors. Make the "spillers" a color that contrasts with Blueberry Bushel. A good potted plant recipe is "a thriller, a filler and a spiller" giving the planting three heights. Planting in groups of three give the plants an interesting look.
Glue the "spillers" to the pot.
Dry fit the plants as desired. Then glue to the white card panel.
Adhere the Let's Go Fishing DSP to the Blueberry Bushel card base.
Attach the "bird bath" with dimensionals overlapping the bottom of the plant arrangement.
Stamp butterflies on the card front or use embellishments instead.
Adhere the white panel to the Let's Go Fishing panel.
Stamp the inside white panel with desired sentiment and a small flower pot for fun.
