Aaaargh!!! I just realised I've missed the deadline for the Twofer challenge!!!
This time the prompt was flowers and I'm so excited about what I came up with but I came up with them a day late.
*sigh*
Oh well. I'm going to share them anyway.
I chose a flower from Altenew's simple flower set. I started by making a thank you card with a simple bunch of flowers. Then I was looking at the swirl on the flower and it made me think of the snail card I made for a recent CASology challenge. So I took the body of a snail from an Essentials by Ellen set and then used the flower to make him a different shell! Pretty neat huh? Finally I added a Lil' Inkers Designs sentiment to make it into an encouragement card.

Oh, man! I'm gutted, too, Jen! These are really sensational designs, fitting the challenge brief perfectly! I love that whimsical little flower which looks delightful in cheery yellow on your thank you card and delicious as a snail on your encouragement card. Sorry. Sorry. I know. Groan. I couldn't resist. But seriously, so perfect for a snail shell and I love the sediment ~ so true! Thank you for almost playing in Twofer Card Challenge #27! I hope we see you next month between June 10-24! Mwah! Hugs, Darnell
ooh what a shame, but still happy that you shared, my fave is that snail, he looks so very stunning in his rose shell!
