How To Guide - Step 1

Cut a piece of white card 4 3/4 x 6 3/4".

Create a "smooshed" background with watered-down grey paint, then splatter with ink, until you are happy with the result. 

How To Guide - Step 2

Using the 2 biggest nesting dies, cut a frame from black cardstock. 

How To Guide - Step 3

Cut a selection of pots, foliage and hanging baskets, from white/black cardstock.

Use your paints to colour the elements as required. You can also use coloured pens, pencils, alcohol pens...whatever your preferred medium. Another option is to die-cut the pot from decorative paper and adhere to the plain die-cut one.

Assemble all your elements to create your own, unique hanging basket. 

How To Guide - Step 4

Using your hanging basket and die-cut frame as a positional guide, decide where you want your sentiment to be positioned and stamp in the Midnight ink. I chose my sentiment from the Whispering leaves set. 

How To Guide - Step 5

Adhere your frame onto your inky background, adhere the hanging basket where required, with foam pads and then mat to your card blank, to finish.
