This card, and the other similar one, meets two challenges today:
WT268, to use chipboard
F4A10 Celebrate May Day, to make your own flowers.
I have never used chipboard before, and no offense to the chipboard lovers out there, but I thought they were too much work. I had to cover mine in dp and cardstock, and it just took too much time. I grew impatient.
I used a sentiment from SU's Friendship Blooms, because my chipboard flower and leaves reminded me so much of the stamps in that set.
The dp's used came from one of those awesome $1 Scrap Bags I get from my local SU demo.
Edited 5/5: changed photo to show that I've added Amethyst Glitter by Martha Stewart. I felt the flower needed something extra.
