Oh my... this is great.... My daughter lives out of state and handmade cards are the best... I think she would really enjoy if I took her a flower pot to put in her room... she has great lighting but no place outdoors.
Thank you alot!

Take care,

Thank you so much for this tutorial.

I tried making seed paper last year and it was a terrible mess. Then I looked into buying it and it cost eighteen dollars (!!!) for ten sheets which is just ridiculous.

This looks like something we would really enjoy trying.

Warmly,
Nicole

Thank you ;-)

Wait till you guys see the one we're sharing Monday!

It's a twist on blooming seeded paper which I think is just adorable.
