I wanted to make a decorative gift card holder that was multipurpose. I used Lucasfrit's Knitted Vase Coarse and Iyttas' Spiral Vase Rose and Stem in Vase Mode and combined them with a basic base, a ring, and sleeve.
- The Knitted Vase was uniformly scaled to 100mm in height (55mm in diameter).
- For the Spiral Rose Vase, use the 5mm rose with bottom (3x) and make stems in vase mode to match no scaling needed.
- The sleeve for the knitted vase should be a light press fit to the vase and the stem sleeve makes the bouquet quickly removable from the vase as a set so it can also be used as a pen holder.
- glue the stems to the roses and the vase to the base.
- for a nicer finish on the base, you can enable ironing.
- it doesn't clamp the gift card to the base although there is a relief for the card to sit in. I used a small piece of clear tape to secure the gift card.
