Announcing our new DT members......

Hi Susan here....

As I promised you all last week, I would like to introduce you now to the newest members of our Design Team here at Lexi's Creations.

Let me tell you a secret, I originally only wanted 6 new members, but when 9 applied and I started to look through their blogs I couldn't decide between them, so guess what I didn't, I asked all 9 would they like to come on board and they said yes!!

I am really excited about this and hope you will visit their blogs, by clicking on their names and then come back on the 9th January, after the Christmas break we are having, and join in our challenges and see what inspiration we can offer you all.

I think I have got a real treat here to show you, our newest members to our design team are:

Jan

Julie

Samara

Jo

Sue

NanaConnie

Tanya

Denise

Tineke

Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas 

and a fabulous crafting New Year.

Love and hugs

Challenge 55 and winners of 54

Hi Susan here....

I have some sad news to tell you all first before the new challenge details...Two of our wonderful design team members Miria and Wendy have decided to step down from the team after this challenge.

It is very sad because their work was always inspiring and gorgeous I am sure you will all agree. I will miss them terribly, but I would like to wish them every success in the future and a huge THANK YOU to them both for all the hard work you did while on the team.

The DT call is now closed and I will be contacting the lucky applicants shortly and then I will announce them here for you all to see their work.

Thank you to everyone who entered our challenge 'One for the Lads', there were some amazing creations.

Congratulations to you both, if you would like to contact me, Susan, with your details I will get your prize/GDS sorted out for you.

This challenge will last until 9th January as we are taking a break for the Christmas holidays.
