The tutorial for this beautiful paper flower topiary made by Julia Sandvoss can be found on her blog, 'Bits of Me..The Craft Mom' . What a wonderful creation!
I was inspired by the beautiful roses and colors and chose Flourishes DIY Topiary Stamp Set for my card this week. There are so many possibilites with this set. I stamped one of the pots and added the shrub-like topiary, coloring it green. I used another of the stamps in the set for the roses and colored, cut out each one, and glittered. I think it made a lovely topiary. I placed it against a brick wall embossing folder. I'm using a Spellbinders lattice rectangle die cut and a scalloped rectangle die.
Added the purple tulle and button to finish it.
