June Challenge

June is the 6th month of the year and the birthflower for June is the Rose so your challenge this month is

6 flowers

they don't have to be roses but there needs to be 6 flowers not 6 + however many others - just 6.

You can enter any craft project you like - cards, scrapbook pages, knitting, sewing, crochet - anything you like.

I found these gorgeous flowers while I was browsing the internet.



not strictly flowers but certainly caught my eye and definitely look like flowers from a distance.








This months prize is a selection of flowers.  I will put a photo up later when I have access to the camera.

Entry is by inlinkz at the bottom of the page and you may only enter twice to make it fair for everybody.

Entries are accepted until 23:59 GMT on 30th June.

May Challenge

There is a saying - 'don't cast a clout till May be out' which means (where I come from anyway) don't pack away your winter clothes too early because May can produce some winterlike weather.  It can also mean the Mayflower (Hawthorn) and in gardening terms don't put out your tender plants until the may has flowered. 

So with that saying in mind about the clothes part of it I had a looksie around the interweb at spring fashion pictures and borrowed this colour palette as your picture inspiration for this month.  Aren't those colours just divine together?




As always you can enter any craft project you wish inspired by the above colour palette.  I love to see new types of crafts being entered. Entry is by inlinkz below and entries will close at 23:59 GMT on 31st May 2010.

Your prize this month is a pack of MOD techno pop embellishments and (because of the colour theme of the challenge) some Prima Rebellious flowers






April Winner

Random.org chose number 17 as the winner for April.

This is Tanja with this fabulous card



The May challenge will follow shortly.
