Penny Black Saturday Challenge 11 No Cards Allowed!

Well this weeks Penny Black Challenge was a toughie!! NO CARDS ALLOWED! I was going to be a coward and wait till next week in the hope that its back to cards again, but then hubby came home from the supermarket with 3 little plants, and three cute plant pots to put them in....

*PING* lightbulb moment!!

These are far too good to put dirt and green stuff in, so I've decided to decorate them, and use them as gift tins.....

So this is my entry for this weeks Penny Black Saturday Challenge what do you think?
Oh, and don't worry about the dirt and green stuff...I sent hubby back out to buy 10 more.....
Just need to make a card to match now...
and I just want to say a HUGE THANKS to Tracy for sending me some stamped images (including this one) Tracy you are a star!!
