AMAZING new DT members, blog hop and Challenge 8

I am absolutely delighted to introduce three new members to the Mami Doodles Design Team:

Claudia (Clouds): Cardmaker and scrapbooker, she does both with a unique style and eye catching design. I look at her works and always think I wish I'd though of doing that!

Elisa B: What I first noticed were her pretty, feminine cards, but she does fabulous boys cards too. She's an eye for colour - I love her colour combos. She also happens to have the same name as I do, so here she's Elisa B and I am Elisa N.

Trinh has a diverse style, just looking at her cards, you can see how much she loves cardmaking, and how much effort she puts in each card, using diverse techniques with striking results.

I am honoured that they accepted to be in the DT - I am so lucky to the 7 of my favourite cardmakers here!

To welcome out new DT members we're doing a blog hop this week, but first let me tell you about this week's challenge:

Be creative with  the card shape
The usual card is a piece of cardstock folded in half - make a card that doesn't follow the mould.

This challenge also will run for 3 weeks. After that, we will be back to a challenge every two weeks.

Please link your card/layout/project at the end of this blog. This challenge will run until Thursday, 2nd of September, midday. The prize will be the last 3  images released (Beautiful Roses, Juliana and Mark), plus one of your choice. Cards using Mami Doodles images - including freebies - will have two entries on the draw.

Here's inspiration from the DT:
