      I hope you are all fit and healthy. Today over at INCY WINCY DESIGNS  we have a  new challenge....

This means we want to see tags somewhere on your creations or of course you can simply make the tag your creation.

For my tags I decided to use a sentiment from our sponsor.....

I trust you are all well. Today over at CRAFT challenge we are asking you to make your own flowers.
Now I love flowers on my cards but don't usually make my own so this was a challenge for me and something I need to practice!

Here is my card 

I made the background paper using a stamp from one of our sponsors AiFactory

The main image is from another of our sponsors  Floppy Latte 

Our third sponsor is  Crimson Cloud 
The flowers were made using a Marianne Creatables die and rolling.
The sentiment was made on my computer.




I am entering this into the following challenges:
Squigglefly - homemade flowers.
Cutecard Thursday - Anything goes
Creative Inspirations Anything goes
Make It Monday Anything goes.

I hope it has given you some inspiration.

The beautiful image is called Ponder a Moment.
The papers are from Raspberry Road - appropriately called Family Matters
The ribbon is from our local craft shop
The flowers are from Wild Orchids.
I coloured the image with Promarkers.

I would like to enter this card into the first D'Arcy's Diaries Challenge

The song is Sweet Potato Pie by James Taylor and Ray Charles


The image is coloured with Promarkers.
The papers are from the Nitwit collection - Finncy's Garden.
The shapes were cut with Go Kreate XXL dies.
