I love working with frames. Mostly I like to make my own, adding die cut embellishments to the corners and framing up a stamped and colored image, but today I made something very simple so I could use a new-to-me Poppystamps die. It's the Greenhouse Potted Plants Sidekick Frame and Stencil. It comes with some small birds and vines, but I left those off today and instead added a cheerful flower from the Poppystamps Sending Scribbles set.
Here's our mood board for your inspiration:
The team has the very difficult task of voting on creative favorites, and a random winner will receive this prize:
I also used a new Poppystamps sentiment set -- Birthday Blowout. All the clean white is not exactly what I had initially envisioned for this die, but I saw these colors in the mood board and thought I'd go with it. Funny thing is, I like it! Maybe it's that funky yellow flower.
Come see the team samples at Double D. No two alike and all a delight!
There are more card details in the recipe below. Thank you so much and I'll see you again soon!

Oh Leslie, I love your card today. This die fits perfectly for the challenge. I love that you kept this very simple and the flower is so perfect sitting in your flower pot. This is sure to brighten up someone's day! I've had my eye on this frame when it was released but I have yet to purchase, someday! Thanks for sharing and have a lovely day!

I have been eyeing this set and I love what you have done with it, so sweet, love the touch of blue around the pots!
Love blue and yellow together. This is such a fun die. Love it.
Gorgeous die and very exquisite card.xx
Wow! This die is just so different and I really adore it. I have a soft spot for Poppy stamps and dies. But unfortunately, don't have many. I love how you did this challenge.
I am so far behind again! A week in Hillsboro and I can't get into any kind of "groove" again, particularly in card-making. This card of yours is one of those clean, neat, beautiful creations that you do so well, Leslie! I love the soft color palette and the "frames" you have chosen. Beautiful job.
OH! I LOVE it! What a fabulous take with this die! Awesome Leslie!
Gorgeous card love the colour and fabulous die with all the pots-brilliant

What a great die - I love what you did with it! Nothing is prettier than soft blue and yellow. Thanks so much for your lovely comments. The past month has been so overwhelming. I will be MIA next week as we decided to run away for awhile. We need some down time. Thanks again, I so appreciate you visiting my blog.
What a cute die, I have never seen one like it. I love the blue and white with just a pop of color with that flower. This is a great card!
I LOVE this with all the little shelves and cups and that bright yellow daisy! Super pretty card - inside and out!
