Winners & Design Team Delights for Challenge #59--Opt. Theme: CHOOSE YOUR FAVOURITE COLOUR(S)

Oh dear me. It is a good thing that we're on hiatus right now (for both July and August) which I was supposed to announce when I did this winner announcement...oh...back at the end of June. Goodness, life just keeps throwing up roadblocks in front of me but I'm FINALLY able to pop in and announce the winners for Challenge #59.

I'm so very sorry for those of you who have been left waiting and wondering what has happened to us. We tend to take at least one month off a year and the last couple of years it has been two. I'll post an additional reminder once I've finished this post. At least one good thing, with being off for two months, hopefully I'll manage to get us back on our proper time line when we get back--'hopeful' being the operative word. ;)

Anyway, time to get back to our announcement. Without further ado, here are the choices...

Now it is time to announce our DT Delights from this challenge. As always, in each challenge you, the readers, get to voice your opinion by voting for your favourite and so it is only fitting that my Design Team get to do so as well.

Thanks to the 10 people who took the time to join along our Path during the month of May for Challenge #59. Check out the entries that really caught our attention...

So as mentioned earlier, we are on summer break right now but will be back in September. I hope that you will join us again at that time. Also, please note that the top picks for our June challenge will be posted during the second week of September and then the winner announcement will be posted the last week of September as we get back to our regular schedule.

Until we meet again, may your Path be an easy one to travel and if it isn't, may you find the strength to deal with the obstacles in your way!

Challenge #59 Top Picks: Voting Open June 18 to June 24, 2018

WELCOME TO THE CHALLENGE #59 POP TOP!

Hey there folks! As promised, I'm back with the top picks for the last challenge. If you are looking for the midway, please scroll down one post.

I admit that I was scratching my head regarding the number of entries in the last challenge. Since the optional theme was for you to choose your own favourite colours, I had really anticipated that we'd have more people join in since technically it was almost like an 'anything goes' kinda of optional theme. However, we only had ten people participate. I guess this falls under the category of "things that make you say hmmmm...".

I also wanted to mention a change that we are implementing regarding the Voter's Choice category. In the past the rules have been such:

1. If we have 14 entries or more in a given challenge, the Design Team chooses a Top Seven. Those seven entries are then put forth to be voted on for the Voter's Choice.
2. If we have fewer than 14 entries in a given challenge, the Design Team chooses a Top Three. However, all entries are put forth to be voted on for the Voter's Choice.
3. If we have five entries or less in a given challenge, the Design Team chooses one Top Pick. However, all entries are put forth to be voted on for the Voter's Choice.

As of Challenge #59 we are changing rule #2:

• If we have fewer than 14 entries in a given challenge, the Design Team will still choose a Top Three. However, it will now only be those top three picks that will be put forth to be voted on for the Voter's Choice.

Rules #1 and #3 will remain the same.

So, in the case of this particular challenge, we only had ten entries; and, while we may not have enough entries to have a Top Seven, we certainly have enough to have a Top Three.

Thus, without further ado, please let me introduce you to the Top Picks for Challenge #59...

  TOP PICK--SHARON H.

TOP PICK--PRIYA




TOP PICK--AJ

Congrats Ladies... 

As a participant who has been chosen as a Top Pick in this challenge,
