Winners & Design Team Delights for Challenge #97-- Opt. Twist: GIVE/HELP Others

 

Hello to all our wonderful crafting friends!  I hope that you all continue to stay safe out there in whichever corner of the world you are located! In this day and age, one would hope that peace and positivity would prevail. We can only hope that the people in charge will one day see the light and join the Path. In the interim, we ourselves, will have to stay the course and be the best beacons we can.

 

I'm sorry I'm behind in the winner announcements again. Such is life it seems. I'm barely keeping up with current tasks and struggling to get through the backlog. For today anyway, I am finally able to present the winners for Challenge #97. As this winner announcement is for a challenge in 2021, the prize structure will be the same as for other challenges last year. Starting next winner announcement, the new prize structure for 2022 will occur. 

 

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.

So, without further ado, here are the choices...

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 people who took the time to join along our Path during the month of December for Challenge #97. Out of the nine entries linked up, check out the ones that really caught our attention...

 

Rosi--chosen by Katrina… 

Katrina said this:

"My DT Delight is Rosi (#04). Wow, these ATCs are amazing! The bright blues are such a great contrast to the blacks/greys and the background is wonderful. It almost looks live the chessboard is floating! Very artistic!"

Astrid--chosen by Carole…

Carole had this to say:

"My DT Delight is Astrid (#01). I do love how the mice are sharing the task of carrying the candy cane! Beautiful colouring and a gorgeous selection of papers and dies for the background make this a really special Christmas card."

Bonnie--chosen by Suze…

 

Suze said this: 
"My DT Delight is Bonnie (#05). I really like the layout of the card with the fox surrounded by foliage. The two different parts of the sentiment add extra interest."
