New DT Members...

Hello Everyone....

I would just like to take this opportunity to 'THANK' everyone who entered our DT call recently.... we were overwhelmed that so many of you wished to join our little blog !!!!!

Our initial thought was to choose 5 new members for each team - but myself and Tanya just couldn't do it as there was so many talented crafters that applied... and so, as you can see, we chose more :o)

I'm sorry if you were not chosen this time around, but we have made a reserve list, so you never know, you may hear from us in the not-to-distant future :o)



So... I would like to welcome our new members of the Monthly team...


... and welcome our new members of the Fortnightly team ...


Thanks once again everyone !!!

Hugs
Diane and the FF Design Team Ladies xxx
