Welcome back to another fun challenge at The Flower Challenge. This month, we would like you to use the colours featured in our mood board.
I really loved the colours in the mood board, but try as I might, the colours I used for my card don’t seem to be that similar. In real life, they are very close. I’ll let you be the judge.
I couldn’t even take a straight photo!!!! This was the best I could come up with.
I used this fantastic flip-flop die by A Pocket Full of Happiness with lots of layers of card and foam to make it more sturdy. The Mighty Waves embossing folder by Altenew for the background, and the sentiment was computer-generated. This was actually an order for a customer who loves the sea, so two birds were killed with one stone. Actually, no birds were injured in the making of this card.
We would love to see your creations at The Flower Challenge, and as always, my teammates have created some amazing cards to inspire and delight.
In other news, as this post is hopefully going live, I shall be airbound on the way to stay with my lovely sister in the UK, who has recently become a nana for the third time. I will be meeting my great-nephew, who is just a month old, and catching up with the rest of the family
Wishing you all a fabulous week.
Marie.

Thank you so much Michele

I did indeed lots of lovely cuddles
Thank goodness the birds were alright… in fact, they’d be very safe if it was me throwing the stone, I’m such a ‘girl’ thrower (no offence to girls lol.)
Love everything about this happy design Marie, great to see you creating and sharing the joy with us x
I’m a girl thrower to especially after the shoulder op !
Fantastic card! Love those flip flops x
Thank you Deborah
How could your beautiful card be straight, it was being tossed about with the waves! Love the colour mix and how you used it with a great design.
AW! How lovely to meet a new member of the family and have a gossip catch up too. I hope it’s warmer and dry where you are in the UK. Have a wonderful time.
It was sooo hot hotter than it was back home in Greece. Thanks for stopping by and your kind and as always humorous words.

You can delete this, I thought I hadn’t posted it DUH! I blame old age. x
I think your colors look fabulous Marie and what a perfect card for retirement! The flip flops couldn’t be cuter and I love that embossing folder you used in your background! Sweet, sweet card my friend and I hope you have a wonderful trip visiting with your sister and the new baby too! Hugs. :0)

Wow, this is absolutely brilliant! Love the texture of the waves in the background as well as the pretty flip flops with the flowers! Very nicely done with the mood board!
