So this month we would like to see you make a 'CAS' (Clean & Simple) card, as well as the usual FLOWERS of course too. If in any doubt see the examples made by our talented Design Team below!

To clarify things further, we want to see a simple card with minimal layers, embellishments, and a lot of 'white'/open space. If in any doubt see the examples made by our talented Design Team below!

Our showcase will be announced in the usual manner, the day before the next challenge.

Please note that you can find us on facebook and also Instagram too. Our Instagram page is @theflowerchallenge2...remember the 2 at the end ;) All links in sidebar!

Please don't forget to use your Florals as always and as the MAIN feature on your card.
Only 6 other challenges allowed as well as our own.
Also please take a few minutes to read our rules in the tab above as you may lose out on winning a prize sometimes too. Bought flowers or ones just cut out from design paper alone are NOT allowed. If in any doubt please do ask.
