Flower Power - Cupcake Craft Challenge!

  WooHoo!  I found another really fun challenge blog today and this one is called "Cupcake Craft Challenge", and it's another fun one.  I am amazed at the amount of Challenge Blogs are that available and my bookmarks are quickly filling up! 
   I hopped on over there this morning and found that the challenge for this week is FLOWER POWER, and right away I need I had a card I wanted to submit!  If you want to join in, then CLICK HERE and look for Challenge 81!!
   And here is the card that I had decided to submit for their challenge.  It's one of my latest cards and thought it would work well for a flower challenge --  it's a very simple and basic design, but I really LOVE these wonderful new Prima flowers!

  
  I also used a 'floral" patterned paper as my background and created a floral border with my MS punch.  I have been making a lot of Flower Themed cards for spring and this is one of my favorites!
  I'm off now to work on more challenge cards and finish up my "Assignment" for my Circut Design Studio class!
   Happy Crating and have a wonderful day!!

Hi Pryn,
They are all from the PRIMA line. The mini roses are really sweet and Magnolia also makes their own now too, but I think the Prima Rose are a better deal. 'm a huge PRIMA fan and think they have the BEST flowers! The larger flower in the center is also from a new CHA release. I bought them at my LSS a couple of weeks ago and they had arrived that day! THe come in various colors and you get 6 in a package! My only wish is that they came in PURPLE!

Thanks as always for your sweet comments!

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
