The Flower Challenge #22 Reminder

Welcome back to The Flower Challenge. It's the midway point in our current challenge and here is a reminder. This month our theme is 'Monochrome'



It would be great if you could add our cue card above when entering our challenge. Of course most of all......have fun !

Please remember to use your Florals and they must be the MAIN image on your card.
Only six other challenges allowed as well as ours remember.
Also take the time to read our simple rules (found in top tab above), it's such a shame to miss out on being chosen for our showcase or even a prize sometimes ;)

And here is some more wonderful inspiration from our Design Team.

The Flower Challenge #22 'Monochrome'

Welcome to The Flower Challenge! This is the challenge that celebrates cards using floral images. Our challenge for July is ......'Monochrome'. 







It would be great if you could add our cue card above when entering our challenge.
Of course most of all....have fun!

So this month we are looking for cards with a 'Monochrome' theme. So either black, 
white,grey or one colour or shades of one colour. See all the cards made by our DT if in doubt.

The winner will be announced in the usual manner, the day before the next challenge. 

Please don't forget to use your Florals as always and as the MAIN feature on your card.
We only allow 6 other challenges as well as our own, these are the two most common mistakes people make.
Also take the time to read our simple rules (found in top tab above), it's such a shame to miss out on being chosen for our showcase or even a prize sometimes ;)

And here is some inspiration from the Design Team. (Be sure to click on the links to their blogs and leave them some comment love :)

The Flower Challenge 'Picks for the Month of June'


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 to 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 then be posted on our Winners post
           and the other cards will be listed under Top Pick and Honourable Mention.


The Winner for our June challenge was...
