The Flower Challenge 'Picks for the Month of February'

Hi everyone. 

  It's been another very busy month here at The Flower Challenge and we 
were so happy to see so many people joining us in our fifth challenge.


   Now comes the hardest part of the Challenge.
                                       
                                   
We decided we didn't want to use the Random Picker as it was felt
 that cards should be chosen for a number of reasons not 'luck of the draw'

When we look at the cards entered we are each drawn towards different 
 styles, techniques and designs. So all the design team have input,
 each has been asked to pick out three cards that stand out to them and why.


 The cards getting the most votes will be featured on our winners post
 and the other cards will then be listed under 'Top Pick' and 'Honourable Mention'.


   The Winner for this month is

   Susanne

 

     The heart die-cut is so lovely and the background  has such 
pretty shading. Love the ombre sentiment and matching
 sequins too.
                         
 Congratulations we all just loved this
 wonderful creation and the work that went into making it.
Please don't forget to grab your badge below.


 


The Top Pick chosen by the Design Team is

sentiment too.
