Challenge - 162 - Flowers



SKDigis is a great digi company who can provide you with cute, fun images that are top of the line in quality.



Please check out their blogfacebook page, and shop website.


This week's challenge is all about flowers.  Please use a flower of flowers somewhere on your creation.  This could be paper, punches, ribbon, etc.  Use your imagination!!








We here at the Critter Sketch Challenge blog are sad to announce will be our last challenge for a while.  We aren't going away forever, but we are taking a break.  We have had a few unforeseen circumstances, plus blog owner Melanie is due to give birth to her third baby in just a couple of weeks, so we have decided that now would be a good time for all of us behind the scenes to take a little break.

We want to thank our Design Team who have given us some amazing creations, our sponsors, who have allowed us to offer such awesome prizes and of course to our followers and challenge goers...  you have all been amazing and we are very grateful for each and every one of you.

So.... with that being said.. watch at the end of summer for our return!  We will miss you!!
