Cupcake 135... Flowers for Mum

Morning, morning, morning. It's Monday again. And of course, that means it's time for another Cupcake! I hope you had a bit of sunshine last week? Wasn't it lovely? I didn't enjoy losing an hour on Sunday morning though, especially when I'd been up playing way past stoopid o'clock. Ahem! ;) Our DT Call has now closed. We had an amazing amount of entries, thank you all for your interest. I am slowly visiting the blogs of everyone that applied and will then draw up a shortlist for The Cupcakes to vote on. I'll e-mail everyone, either way, when a decision has been made.

Wow! You loved Delphine's Monochromatic Challenge last week! Thanks for joining in with us again, we loved seeing all your stunning creations. You made it very difficult for us to pick a Top 5.

Now, without further ado, this week, our Sassy Denise has chosen:

***Flowers for Mum***

It's Mothers Day next Sunday... Oh yes, it is! I had a bit of a shock when the realisation hit the other day too! So, we'd like to see your creations for Mums. It must be a Mothers Day project and it must include flowers. Easy peesy!

You have until 8pm, GMT on Sunday 03 April to place your entry for this challenge. Have fun!
