Garden in a Box!

I made this card for my Father-in-law for Father's Day; he used to be a very keen gardener in his younger days, even doing it professionally at one time.  He now lives in a nursing home as he needs round the clock care, but he still loves to talk about plants, and even although he'll hardly be able to see the card as he is registered blind, he likes being to show the staff what I've made for him.

 The basic pop up box and the mats were made with Tattered Lace dies borrowed from my Mum, they're brilliant as everything is cut and scored perfectly and the mats are the perfect size with out measuring, they make it soooo easy!  I used ancient Papermania, Born to Shop, Go Green papers for the mats, the box itself was made from fairly thick green cardstock.
All the bits and bobs inside were made with First Edition dies, mainly from the Gardening set, with the exception of the  plant pot which is from the Pots and Vases set.
The sentiment was stamped with a Papermania stamp and die cut with a Spellbinders circle die.  The whole thing does, of course, fold flat for posting.
