Hello, everyone! Welcome back to The Flower Challenge - we've had a break and the design team are ready to start sharing our florals with you, and to see all the gorgeous floral cards you share with US!
It's February and what more appropriate assignment could we have than 'add a heart?' I did a deep dive into my stash and found a well-loved set that seems perfect for our challenge - you've undoubtedly seen this one before...
Today I made this heart-shaped bouquet to you in my favorite orange...
after white heat-embossing them onto water-friendly, mixed media paper.
Another 'old meets brand new' design today - I added this gorgeous stencil
to my Waffle Flower order in December. Lightly stenciled onto the same
paper it gives the look of vellum, right?
I adore this little heart-shaped bouquet of roses. But you're going to adore all the ways my teamies have found to add a heart to their cards - you'll find them right HERE! I can't wait to see how YOU will put your heart into your card!
Thanks for stopping by!

so sofsst and pretty, Michele. I am normally not a big floral gal, but the contrast here between the soft background and the bright embossed-resist water coloring makes this come together so nicely. Well done - again!
Your heart shaped bouquet of roses is SO pretty Michele and look just perfect against that softly stenciled rose background...lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
OH WOW, those roses are gorgeous in the oranges. Yes the light stenciling looks like vellum. ROcking it hon.
Well! There was me thinking that this was a suite of coordinating items Michele! I love the softly stenciled background and you're right about it having the look of vellum. The heart of flowers is so pretty and I love your colours. Vicky x
PS Thanks for the warm welcome to the team :)
Color me a fan of these soft and pretty orange roses, foreground and background! They're perfectly paired, and the background does look like vellum. The beauty of stencils, sigh.
Those orange rose are extra sweet Michele! You sure fooled me, at first glance I thought there was a vellum overlay on the background! This is a delightful card!
You had me at those peachy hues...the heart shape and beautifully-stenciled background are a plus! Gorgeous!
When I saw 'heart' I wasn't expecting a floral version, what a fun and unique design Michele!
Very pretty. Love the pretty orange flowers and especially the flower heart.
Love the heart shaped bouquet of flowers in orange, Michele! And that stenciled background does look like vellum! What a beautiful card, my friend!

This is sweet Michele! Love the colors you used and that beautiful heart bouquet is the star of the show. So lovely!
Oh so pretty, Michele. You have a fantastic selection of ink colors! I may need to up my game in that department at some point. Thank you for sharing your creativity so generously!
This is absolutely gorgeous, Michele. I have a similar die... I am inspired, as always...
So happy to see TFS back from hiatus and to be inspired by your gorgeous florals! That floral heart is just perfect for the challenge and in MY favorite colors, too! LOVE!!
Be still, My Heart! Wowzer this is gorgeous... love the sweet rose heart as well as the dreamsicle stencil blending. Beautiful
I love that you have used oranges and not reds for your lovely rose heart. The soft background stencilling sets it off beautifully xx
So very beautiful Michele. I LOVE the shades of orange and peach with green. Makes me think that Spring is just around the corner. xx
Michele, Great color choice and stunning card!
I haven't used that roses heart in ages, Michele. Thanks for the reminder. It looks beautiful with those softly stenciled roses in the background.
I am loving the shades of orange you used! Who said orange is just for Halloween ?!? Gorgeous!
What a sweet mix of the heart of flowers with the soft flowers in the background.
