Color Hues #123

It's pink and green at Color Hues and I made another Christmas card.

I already made a card using the Waffle Flower Poinsettia Frame die (you can see it here) but it works great with the challenge colors.  I used Distress Inks in Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo, Bundled Sage, Rustic Wilderness and Picked Raspberry.  The background is Timeworn Type from SU! and the silver embossed sentiment is from PFS. I like to make Christmas cards all year long so this won't be the last one you see. 

Thanks for dropping by and spending a little bit of your day with me.

The Flower Challenge #109

Before I get to my card, I have sad news to report from our wonderful team leader, Karren.  

"After 9 years of The Flower Challenge the December challenge will be our last. We want to thank all our design team members, past and present, and especially all our participants over the years. Finally, we thank Aileen Ryan for coming up with the idea and running the challenge in conjunction with Viv Hodge for the first 7 years. We will post the winners as usual on the 4th of January 2026. The challenge blog will remain open for floral inspiration. We will be back with our reminder post on the 15th."

I decided to follow in the footsteps of Jennifer McGuire and make a bridge card featuring the Poinsettia Frame die from Waffle Flower.  You get half of the frame and separate flower sections to stack over those on the frame.  The stencils and Distress Inks color everything.  This is mainly a Waffle Flower card since the inside is embossed with their coverplate and the sentiment is one of their hot foil plates.

Thank you to all our loyal followers.  You've given us some wonderful flower cards over the years.
