We're baaaack! I hope you are enjoying a most Happy New Year - are you ready to get The Flower Challenge party started? We can't wait to see all the gorgeous floral cards you will share with us in 2025!
Without further ado, here is our 99th challenge:
I have a new and larger commitment to my Seniors for 2025 - I'd like to deliver to all of them in my area: 380 at the time of this writing!! YIKES! SO, on occasion, I'm going to make one of my cards for this challenge into a Christmas card - using the challenge parameters, of course! Ready?
I used two shades of fuchsia pink cardstocks from Concord & 9th for the main
Poinsettia from HoneyBee and curry card for my SB Poinsettia Corner
Better-pressed panel and leaves!
I STILL have plenty of those premade Christmas sentiments - this one
from The Ton.
Honestly this is my favorite shade of pink - isn't it lovely with that curry color?
Okay, we really love ALL the pink flowers so use what you love, and we'll love it, too!
Let's go see what my talented teammates have created shall we?

I don't mind Christmas cards any time of the year and this one is SOOOOOO pretty in the bright pinks and the curry background Michele! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteMichele your Christmas card is beautiful and I LOVE that big bold pink poinsettia! xo
ReplyDeleteThat curry colour makes such a good backdrop for the bright pink. Striking and stylish. 380! I feel my stress building just thinking about it and it is not me doing it. Good luck xx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card with your beautiful, bright pink poinsettia, Michele. Lovely contrast with the curry coloured background. It's stunning! xx
ReplyDeleteThe contrast of the fuchsia and curry is amazing, Michele! They make such a pretty Christmas card! Hats off to you trying to do that many cards for your seniors!
ReplyDeleteGreat kickstart to the challenge and your Christmas card collection... LOVE that poinsettia, it's dreamy in PINK!
ReplyDeleteYou just can't go wrong with a pink poinsettia and this particular shade is marvelous! Wonderful card, Michele!
ReplyDeleteLucky are the seniors who'll be receiving your cards this year! And fuchsia and curry have never looked sooo good. Happy to see TFC back again!
ReplyDeleteYou have a beautiful soul and a wonderful talent. Those seniors are very lucky!
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Both your 380 card commitment and the gorgeous colors on this card! I would never have put fuschia and curry together but it is a perfect combo!
ReplyDeleteThese two shades of pink are gorgeous together, and amazing with the curry! I know you'll meet your goal of making 380 seniors smile this year!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! That pink sure pops against that beautiful green background. That's a great goal too - 380 cards. You go friend! :D
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to letter press that SB poinsettia corner as your background for this one. The colors are perfectly wonderful. Simple and gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThis is a show stopper, Michele. So gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI sure do love the drama of that color combo, Michele! Such a beautiful poinsettia and the press plate leaves and background have such a subtle texture - just gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteYou sure have an ambitious project ahead with all those cards for seniors but it just shows what an even bigger heart you have. I'd also planned to create holiday cards for the challenge whenever possible, so it will be fun to see what we each make!
