I stamped the image on a Perfect Paper Panel with Tuxedo Black ink, paper pieced the dress and colored the rest with Copic markers. The card layout is very simple so I won't go into that.
Here's the inside with the pocket for the seed packet.
In order to have room for the seeds, I found the center of the base card and scored on either side of it to make a 1/4" "top" section.
Here you can see how the seed packet fits inside the card.
To make the "pocket", I measuerd the seed packet width, added 1/4" for the depth, and another 1/4" on either side and the bottom to provide a surface with which to adhere the pocket to the card base.
First I decorated the inside of the card. Then I scored both sides and the bottom of the pocket at 1/4" and 1/2", folded those under, and stuck the pocket to the base using red line tape. You can see the dimension in this picture.
Hope this gives you a little inspiration for using this image. Spring is not far away and planting time will soon follow :)
