Hello! I am going to share with you how to make a flowerpot using the Beverages Chippies and the Merci and More Stamp, Die, and Stencil Set. I just love how the sentiment “Merci” looks like it is actually baked into the pottery!
Step 1: Cut the handle off the big mug from the Beverages Chippies set.
Step 2: Emboss the mug and the saucer using Embossing Ink and Lime Mixed Media Powder.
Step 3: Using the Perfect Stamp Block, stamp 2 each of the flourishes from the Merci and More Stamp, Die & Stencil Set using Leaf Green Archival Ink. Then, die cut them.
Step 4: Blend Acorn Archival Ink through the stencil from the Merci and More on a 4” x 5 ¼” piece of Perfect Cardstock. Then, blend Potting Soil Archival Ink around the perimeter of the panel.
Step 5: Rub Embossing Ink around the edge of a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” piece of Perfect Cardstock and emboss it with Potting Soil Embossing powder.
Step 6: Ink up flowers from the Blossom Chippies using Sunflower and Cactus Flower Archival Inks.
Step 7: Rub the Anti-Static Pouch over the embossed Chippie and stamp Merci on the pot using Embossing Ink. Then heat emboss Merci with Ranger Black Embossing Powder.
Step 8: Mount the stenciled panel to the Potting Soil embossed panel using Perfect Card Adhesive. Next, adhere it to a white landscape Perfect Cardstock card base. Then, adhere the flourishes and pot chippies to the card.
Step 9: Adhere the Blossom Chippies and finish the card with Black Enamel Accents in the centers of the flowers.
