Plus a Rule Change & Some Great Advice!!






Hi everyone!  HELEN here popping in before handing over to Rachael to announce
our winners!  I just wanted to say WAY TO GO PEOPLE!!!  We closed on 113
entries & SO MANY of them were simply FABULOUS!!  We can only choose
10 winners & 10 Honourable Mentions as you know, but please, if you aren't
in those, don't despair!  You may very well have come a close 2nd because 
we had to slash our list in half there were so many great entries!!!

We have listed a new rule!
From now on we will not be accepting entries with anything blanked out in the 
photo so please choose photos you are happy to share online.  This is a public 
competition after all & we can't showcase those types of photos on our 
Wall of Fame no matter how brilliant your creation, so best to tell you 
so you can select photos you are happy to share publicly in future.

And lastly I have written a couple of posts on 
HOW TO WIN CHALLENGES & GET ONTO DESIGN TEAMS
  which you can find on my personal blog HERE & HERE.
Do pop in if the subject interests you & I hope you find 
them useful & interesting :)  Okay over to Rach!
