Welcome to the first CCEE Challenge of May. Our wonderful hostess this month is Joanne Grzelak. For all of May's challenges, Joanne will have us concentrating on tools and embellishments instead of themes. The challenge for today is to use at least one embossing folder, brad, and a self-made flower on your card/project. You can certainly use dies to create your flower(s) if you want. For my holiday card I have used Susan's Garden Poinsettia Dies and Ornate Labels Dies by Sizzix. The music embossing folder is also from Sizzix.
Check out the beautiful flowers created by the rest of the CCEE Team!
