Just me! but this is a bittersweet post for The Flower Challenge as we've come to the end of our wonderful challenge.
I'd like to thank Aileen for creating this wonderful challenge, her wonderful sidekick Vivien for keeping us all making - and on time! And most of all, thank you Karren for keeping The Flower Challenge alive for the last few wonderful years.
I am so honored to have been part of this sensational, talented team of card makers. I've loved making floral cards for this challenge over the years! If you feel like a walk down memory lane, just add The Flower Challenge to my search box! I have a few favorites - if you do, please let me know in the comments! Karren will also be leaving our blog open for your floral inspiration for years to come!
For my last TFC card - I've used an oldie-but-goody Poinsettia from
Altenew and a few more die-cut fillers from HoneyBee - and even a few pearls!!
I just love all these neutrals - including that background paper
you can see through my Spellbinders Stylish Oval window!
Come on, you had to know there would be a bit of grey, right?
Thanks so much for all the love and gorgeous cards you've sent to us over the years, my friends. You know I'll keep using florals in my designs and I'll be watching for yours, too. BTW you have a few more weeks to add some of your own if you'd like to right HERE before we close the doors on January 4, 2026! Now let's go see what this wonderful team has to share, shall we?

Your neutrals are so peaceful and serene, Michele! I often go back to view your gorgeous floral cards. You have been, and continue to be such an inspiration and enabler! I will miss the challenge but I know we will still be creating those floral cards.
I love that your beautiful finale card was made with your favorite gray! The fillers and pearls with the textured background were the perfect companions for the wonderful poinsettias!
