Circles are the theme for this Flower Challenge, and I also wanted to let you know that we are celebrating a Birthday!!!!!!
I apologize for forgetting to add this fabulous composition that our sweet Vivien created for us to celebrate our 4th. birthday.
Time sure flies when you're having fun!! THE FLOWER CHALLENGE has an amazing group of talented artists sharing our love for flowers with you each month, I hope you'll continue to play along with us in our gallery for many more years to come.
Another fun piece of news is the fact that we have a brand new member on the team and its nonother than the fabulous Loll Thompson from Stamping with Loll, you'll enjoy seeing her amazingly beautiful cards on The Flower Challenge from now on.
So, to help us celebrate our 4th. Birthday, we are giving away some awesome prices to 7 LUCKY WINNERS, our main winner plus 6 more who will make it to our showcase, please check THE FLOWER CHALLENGE blog page to learn about what prices we have for you and the rules.
This month, we are again being sponsored by the wonderful Alex Syberia who designs truly gorgeous images, just go and check her Etsy shop.
She is generously giving us a coupon for $10.00 for one of our lucky winners.
So this is the card I created to inspire you to come and play along with us.
Please pay close attention to our rules so you can have a chance to win one of the fantastic prizes we have this month.
The "Peony Bouquet" is one of my favorite Altenew stamp sets, this time I only used the outline and the third shade stamp in the set, stamped with SU "Hello Honey" ink and colored it with Sakura Koi watercolor markers and Prismacolor pencils for shading.
The sentiment is from a retired SU set called "Climbing Roses" (2019 Occasions Mini), the butterfly is from a My Favorite Things called "Beautiful Butterflies".
***********************************************
This is the INSIDE of the card.
The sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called "Tea in the Garden".
So I hope you come and join my teammates and me and help us celebrate this awesome 4th. year at THE FLOWER CHALLENGE.
Good luck to all of you.
Stay healthy, safe and please wear your masks.
XO
