This is a gorgeous Poppy creation but it's on Flickr which will not allow images to be lifted so sadly we can't share it with you. A little note about Flickr and Slipcoast entries, whilst we love to see your work it is only possible to comment on these entries if one has the appropriate account and as a number of the DT do not they will see your work but just cannot comment.

As usual the DT have been keeping their eyes open for Guest Designers and we would like to invite the following to join us, two months this time as it's the holiday season and thought it would give both us and the GDT's ample time to prepare their work.
