This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using
Your Favourite Flower and (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

After a bit of thought, I decided mine were roses and so I'm counting the rose that the little mouse is holding as well as the rose bud and open rose embellishments I use these roses a lot, and I also love using the chrysanths and lilies that also feature on my card.

Samantha

**coming soon**

Brenda

I have many favorite flowers. I love daisies and sunflowers because they make me smile. I love the orchids that bloom regularly in our yard, but for this challenge I went with the rose. I absolutely adore cabbage roses and antique roses because they are beautiful to look and and smell wonderful.

Elaine

I love all flowers so to choose one favourite is impossible. I decided after some deliberation to use my national flower. I love the colour combination and the texture.

Larissa

I love many flowers, but decided to use a poppy on my card for this challenge. I love poppies because of their colour. I really like red. And they look really cute when you see them next to the road or in a field somewhere.

Lori

I don't really have a single favorite flower as I love ALL flowers...so I decided to add a card with an image that has a bunch of flowers LOL...flowers totally brighten my day and make me feel very happy inside. A girl can never have too many!

Lynne

I love all flowers, but have chosen the rose as it is typically English and they come in many beautiful colours and varieties. The fragrance of some of them can be gorgeous.

Sarah

My paternal grandmother "Nanny" was called Daisy so I have always been drawn to daisies and, as the script goes in You've Got Mail, they are "such friendly flowers".

Squirrel

My favourite flower changes with the seasons - most of the year it is daisies, but in Spring there is nothing like a splash of colour from the nodding heads of tulips to make you think everything is going to be fine.

Wilma

It's hard to choose, but the tulip is one of my favourite flowers. I live in the area where tulips, hyacinths and daffodils are grown. And in March/April/May the fields are full of blooming tulips, hyacinths and daffodils. I love the colour, the variety and scent of these flowers.
