Whimsical Flower Card

I was in a fix to make a cute, quick card for my sister Emily for Mother's Day.  She is Lukeyloo's godmother.  I found this card below on Pinterest and used it as my inspiration.  Click HERE to visit the site that the card is from.  It is in what I believe to be Russian but the pictures helped translate! 
 This is my version of the card....

I let go of my A-type personality and free-hand cut the circles using the Joy Ride 6x6 Paper pack from Cosmo Cricket.  It helped to cut one size and then use it as a guide for the other patterns of the same size.  I folder craft paper to make the stems and used a simply tan paper that I scored using the Martha Stewart scoring board for the "pot".  To make the pot, I scored to lines on each side. I then folded and glued the first fold on the inside.  The pot was looking a little boring so I added some sticker words from the Authentique Blisful line.  I love the saying!
