Thanks to all who joined our fabulous Inspiration challenge. We had so many beautiful entries. Our Top Pick this week is Joanne with her beautifully blended Dahlia card.


Here's what some of the design team had to say...

Absolutely beautiful balance of the colours from the Inspiration pic.

Such a rich, warm creation! Love the addition of metallic and bling to give it a luxurious feel.

The beautifully blended background with the stunning embossed Dahlia makes this a WOW card!

A stunning card with great use of colour.
