Fabulous cards girls, they’re all brilliant.
Are you commenting on the entries though? I entered last week and didn’t receive a comment at all.
I know how busy it is to be on a DT but there are 13 of you!

At the moment we are trialling a different system over the summer holidays. If you look just above the entry form it states:

I am sorry if you were upset by this. Many of the team members have children and I really want them to spend as much time with their children as they can during the holidays. This is why the examples are sparce and we haven’t been actively commenting.

I’m new to here, Vicky persuaded me to come join in and join you on FB, but I’m wayyyy outta my depth – LOL!! I’m off to look at more of your fab tutorials and practice colouring (think I need to get me some copics though!).

Hi Ladies,

Inspired as usual by all of your talents.

I was hoping to make a request. I know that the challenge are most likely set up in advance, but I was hoping that sometime down the line, you might consider doing a background challenge ie. clouds, ground etc. I would love to see some tutorials, you guys make the background look effortless, I can only make mine look contrived.
