#1SPECIANITY: Enjoy the Best and The Winner of First Giveaway
What a wonderful week it's been with warm weather still on, it did affect plants but still a precious sun and warmth tanned us pretty!
In this post you will know more about how some of the SHC design team made it. Also they are giving us valuable advice on what you need to know to become a design team member and maintain a balanced life. Further, I have picked some of my favourites from the submitted blogs and finally the WINNER of this week's GIVEAWAY. Let's start
Laurigami has started blogging only in 2013? Now she's part of the Besties Shabby Chic who will release their own magazine soon. She's one of the first DTs to join SHC but she's also with Paper Nest Dolls.Her advice to you: "I thought at first that it was good to have a lot of DT's, but this is a mistake. As we meet deadlines so we are obliged to put a aside family time to make our cards . I see full call DT but only 3 would happy if one day, I'm caught in their DT. I am proud to be part of the 3 DT's that I currently have. It can't be part of a DT only to have free products but we must already love the products beforehand and be proud to represent the brand"
Some of her favourite own makes:

Donna has started blogging since 2012, she's been busy since with wonderful makes. She is published in Simply Cards & Papercrafts before joining SHC and Making Cards Magazines featuring SHC Roxstamps and Gummiapan. She's, like Laurigami, a pioneer to DT member for SHC.Her advice you: "Work as a team and communicate with each other. Be respectful to other team members. Focus on what projects you are going to make every month in advance and ensure that your projects are in on time. Make an extra in case another team member is unable to reach the deadline."
These were featured in magazines:
Some of her favourite makes:

Lou has been a blogger the last 10 years! She know what should be done..When I asked her what is her favourite make ever, she said she loves them all, so hard to choose, but I would say, she is innovative and loves integrated and 3D cards.She was published in few magazines: Simply Cards and Papercrafts, Die-Cutting Essentials and Making Cards Magazine, but she prefers to swing her wings and fly free in the craft world and landed finally on our twigs (did rhyme, ha!).
Well, Lou is not just with SHC, she is a lead DT at Tiddly Inks and Mo's Digital Pencil. She was a Lead DT for Saturated Canary before too, so she really knows how to advise you, take it and use it!
Her advice to you: "...DT peeps-Be prepared! Always look after your team mates, being on a DT is a magic thing but life happens too and you need to support each other through that. Enjoy making!"
She loves everything but I have chosen some of her works for us which are a bit different:
Now you know a bit about some of the team, this week there has been 12 blogs submitted, I am not sure I should say, thank God, that was less work for me or I say wow, you're not interested to show off your work!! But at the end I remember it is sunny and lovely out! Let's hope for some rain then lol!
Thank you so much for those who left their blogs for the week, if you haven't visited them yet, here is the link to the Celebration Post.
It is hard to pick because most of those were different levels and everyone has a different style. But those I am showing here are ones I never met before and they have their own character. Here they are in random order:
Niharika Expressions:
