Winners & Design Team Delights for Challenge #55--Opt. Theme: SHADES OF BLUE

Hello and happy Thurday. As I stated in the start post that went out on Monday, I have an apology to make. To say that the universe has thrown a few extra challenges into my life in these past number of weeks, would be an understatement. Unfortunately, these challenges are affecting me both physically and mentally; and as such, it has also meant that I have about three hours less a day to work on computer and blog activities which is putting me rather farther behind. I'm not sure when this trend will end but it does mean that I'm going to have to sacrifice certain things in order to catch up. That probably means that our posts, especially the top picks and winner announcements, will not be up to their normal standards in terms of framed images, etc. I hope that you can all understand. Each minute I can save is precious and allows me to work toward checking one more thing off my list! Right now on this blog I'm still behind one winner announcement. My hope is that I'll be able to catch up with it within the next month. Your patience while I walk this difficult path is appreciated.

Thus on that note, it is finally time to present the winners for Challenge #55. First we'll share the names of the Voter's Choice, the Most Inspirational and the Random Winner and then we'll move on to showcasing our DT Delights. Who are all the lucky peeps? Well, let's find out.

Now it is time to announce our DT Delights from this challenge. As always, in each challenge you, the readers, get to voice your opinion by voting for your favourite and so it is only fitting that my Design Team get to do so as well.

Thanks to the 18 people who took the time to join along our Path during the month of January for Challenge #55. The following crafters caught our attention...
Pinky-chosen by Helen and Julie...


Julie had this to say:
"My DT Delight is Pinky. I just love the sentiment on the card. It almost moved me to tears!"

Helen said this:
"My DT Delight is also Pinky. The sentiment on her card is amazing - such a positive and encouraging thing to say to anyone. It's so great to see something a bit different on a card."

Rosina--chosen by Pippa...


Pippa said this:
"My DT Delight is Rosina. I have seen this card in a number of challenges and I love everything about it, the images, shape, embellishments all combine to make a beautiful, elegant card. I would be thrilled to receive a card like that."
