Hello again! We had a fabulous turnout for our May flowers challenge and are now ready for a new challenge!  This time we want to see your WINGED THINGS A2 CARDS!  This could be angels, butterflies, fairies, birds, airplane, etc.  If it has WINGS you can use it on an A2 card for this challenge! Just remember to keep your cards fairly flat for mailing to fit in with our Cards in "Envy" objective.  Super thick bows and hard thick roses and rosettes plus really thick buttons just won't do.

Our Designers have gone out of their way to bring us lots of variety with WINGED THINGS for our card creation inspiration.  Be sure to visit their blogs for more details about each card.

It's May and that means we need a challenge for FLOWERS!  This time we want to see your beautiful and creative cards using flowers--MAY FLOWERS!  Just remember that your flowers need to be flat enough to fit in an envelope for mailing.  Those thick, hard rose type flowers or rosette flowers just won't do.  And your card must be an A2 size (4.25" x 5.5")

To inspire you and to give you an idea on how you can create a card with FLOWERS that are flat enough for mailing, our Designers have created the following cards.
