Today I am making a pop-up flower bouquet from Karen Burniston. I am using her #1223 Wide Woven Basket Box Card. The basket can hold about 20 flowers so I also pulled the flower dies from #1010 Flower Pot pop -up and some from my stash to get enough flowers cut out quickly. You will need 4 of each of the 3 basket dies to make a basket.
