Flower Power !

You may remember a few days ago when I announced that I had become a member of the Get creative design team. In honour of which I spent several hours working late into the night creating a fusion of flowers (ooh I like the sound of that ) to take part in their challenge to create a card or layout including five flowers or more. Only to have my two scoundrel dogs  R & B ( Rosy and Bailey ) eat four of the five flowers the fifth perished during the night !
The challenge finishes in two days time and they have some wonderful blog candy on offer for the winner plus the very talented Melenia is offering a nine week on line course to help us perfect our layout skills go check it out. I have to say there where some doubting Thomases ( they know who they are ) who didn't believe me that R & B ate my card so this is for them.


I promised that I would redo my card but was stricken down ( me a drama queen ? ) with bloggers neck so had to postpone all activities of the creative kind for a few days. 

I also want to enter this into the Take a word challenge who's theme is  " Blooms " I love their site they always come up with such interesting challenges.

The photo frame is cut using my Silhouette machine and the flowers I hand made using SU and Ranger inks to colour and my texture boutique to emboss them

Hope you like them.
