Ever since I first saw LJD Peaceful Wildflowers I’ve had this idea to put them in a vase. We don’t really have a vase, per se, so I had to make one :) The popcorn box from Die-namics At the Movies Die Only is perfectly scaled and is perfect for the job :)

First of all I wanted a “table” on which to set the vase of flowers. That was easy—MFT Die-namics to the rescue again. One new set being released this month is Die-namics Accent It – Feathers and Arrows. I used the shaft of the arrow for my table—cut it from Black Licorice card stock and adhered it with my Quickie Glue Pen. Then I stamped the sentiment from another new set this month from Lisa JohnsonLJD Cheerful Blessings, with Black Licorice ink.

Then I die cut my flowers using Die-namics LJD Wildflowers and stamped the images from LJD Peaceful Wildflowers using Sour Apple ink, the new Red Hot ink, Lemon Drop ink, Razzle Berry ink, and Orange Fizz ink. I arranged them to “fit” inside the “vase”, cut the vase from Blu Raspberry card stock and adhered it on top of the stems. I love it when a plan comes together :)

Here’s the inside with another sentiment from LJD Cheerful Blessings:
