    Ok so it’s March already! That means a change of season and for those of you in the Northern Hemisphere thats the promise of warmer days, new growth and bursts of colour. Yep SPRING has sprung so lets find inspiration in those smiling faces and create a page abundant with beautiful flowers.


    CHALLENGE CRITERIA:
    • Create a project that showcases a minimum of 3 different types of flowers. This could be three unique flower varieties or perhaps 1X doodled, 1X stamp and 1X cut file. The combination is entirely up to you. You are more than welcome to add floral papers or scrapbook a photo of a flower but remember these do not count as one of the minimum of 3 flowers on your page. I really want to see the main flowers as accents on your page.
    Here is my page. I used a bunch of realistic flowers, a ribbon flower, a watercolour rose and a stylised floral pattern stamp.

    For extra inspiration I have put together a PINTEREST BOARD called SPRING HAS SPRUNG this has tonnes of great ideas to inspire your pages.

    Remember our monthly challenge rules:
    Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the MARCH Challenge Layouts thread so it can be tracked, and to this thread.

    The Lilypad uses a percent system for our challenges; the number of challenges you participate in determines the store discount you will receive at the end of the month:

    2 challenges = 10% off
    4 challenges = 20% off
    6 challenges = 30% off

    If you complete 7 challenges, you will receive a coupon for 30% off, plus you will be entered to win a $50 gift certificate from the Lilypad! The first seven challenges will be posted on the first of the month; the eighth challenge is the BYOC challenge, which is posted on BYOC release day. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).

    I can't wait to see your bright and happy spring flowers!

    Thanks for the challenge, Em. I don't decorate my pages with flowers very often, so this was definitely a challenge. I used a button flower, a stem of flowers and a bouquet of flowers.
