Hear ye, hear ye ...  It’s Jen Leeflang, your DT Lead for the week.

Are you ready for another challenge?!

I'm sure you are, but first I have some TERRIFICALLY THRILLING news to share with you!

Every now and again we will have a SPECIAL INVITED GUEST DESIGNER joining us to showcase the image of the week on our Terrifically Thrilling Thursday posts,  and inspire you for the week's challenge.  It will be someone whose creative talent we admire and would like to share with you.  

And even MORE THRILLING will be the special GIFT CERTIFICATES that can be won by a lucky commenter on the blog of the Shelly's Images Design Team Lead for the week and the blog of the Special Invited Guest Designer! A certificate to be won at each of the two blogs ... WOW!

 Today I have the privilege of introducing Desire Fourie, a fellow South African whose work I admire enormously!  Desire puts so much work into a creative project, and each one is a masterpiece!  She has joined the Shelly’s Images Design Team as our first Special Guest to showcase our image of the week, and to introduce our new challenge to you all. 

This is how Desire describes herself : “Doing Life in beautiful sunny South Africa. Loving wife for 27+ years. Keen Photographer. Avid Gardener. Energetic Hiker. Ad hoc Race Walker. Addicted to Spinning. Scrapaholic. Committed Scrapbook Teacher. Founder/Manager Doing Life Online Shoppe. Bedazzled Beader. Card creator. Mosaic Enthusiast. PA/Secretary/Bookkeeper. Chocoholic. Right now I would love to be outdoors blending with nature.”   

And I thought I was a busy bee!!!

 

 You can visit Desire’s blog and you will see just how busy and talented she really is!  If you leave a comment on her post featuring her fabulous card using the Shelly's Images "King's Proclamation" you are in the random draw to win a GC from Shelly's images.
