To Mom Gecko Galz Daily Blog Challenge

My mom passed away 2 yrs ago, so this card is a tribute to her.

She always loved flowers + hummingbirds and had a green thumb.

I started off making a 2 ended flower pot.

A crease runs down the center. I measured off each top enbd of the pot, + made a lip using a decorative paper.

I cut out 2 more of the decorative papers, and glued them top + bottom, on one side, then the other

I then edged all away around the flower pot in a distress ink

Fold the pot up + punch 2 holes on either side of the decorative paper.

Do that to both ends where the decorative paper is.

I cut flowers out from  GG floral sheets and glued the ends to the back side of the pot.

The humming bird is cut out, and has a pop dot behind it.

On the inside,using a tag die, I cut out a shape using Handwritten Word paper.

Glued that in the center, then added words from another sheet.

On the front again, add a tag or a floral with the word "Mom" and attach to front of the flowerpot.
I also added 2 tiny light green crystals to either side of my Mom tag.

Choose a coordinating ribbon, and run bring it thru the holes + tie a bow. Your Mom opens the bow to see your message.

Happy Mothers Day!
