Wonderful summer cards from everyone from the DT and guest designers.
Love the summer cards - I'm going to have to make a summery card this weekend I think to try and forget all the rain we have outside!
well done DT and I for one am glad you're moving to a monthly challenge - I may even get chance to participate! Fab work to Anne too - I thought it could be a winner!!!! Big hugs xx
Like the new look. Great summery cards by the team.
Just done the blog hop, some wonderful cards from the DT, may be inspired to enter the challenge. xxx Carol V
Fabulous cards by the DT and a lovely new design but ... I don't like the light blue text on the white background. It's straining to the eyes (to mine at least).
Gorgeous DT cards as always.
My Saturday mornings will never be the same!! ;-)
Good luck with the new format and love the new look challenge blog too!

I think this is a wonderful idea. I love this challenge but can't always find the time to join in weekly, and you all must be so busy getting this all done for us each week. Love the new blog look and great cards from the DT. Off to do the blog hop!

Such a great Blog Hop! All DT Girls did a fabulous job! But...I will really miss the weekly Chalenge here!

Great idea to change to less frequent challenges! Don't know how you all kept up that weekly pace. Just a suggestion: That light blue font is not so easy on the eyes!! Otherwise, the blog look is great! Wonderful DT cards, too. Thanks for the hop!
Beautiful DT-works! Could you please tell me, how many times can I partisipate in each challenge? With different cards of course. Is there any limitations?
Wow,what a lovely new look!
love the blog face-lift! The dt's cards are great as usual,
hugs Doreen
Congratulations on the new bright, fresh look to the blog. I enjoyed hopping on the bus around the DT blogs looking at all the lovely summery cards. Enough inspiration to overlook this dismal rainy winter we are having, cheers Linda
The blog looks fantastic, as do all the DT cards. Thanks very much for the hop, it was fun.

Hi There, I just spent a little time reading through your
posts, which I found entirely by mistake whilst researching one
of my projects. Please continue to write more because it’s
unusual that someone has something interesting to say about
this. Will be waiting for more!
