It is with a heavy heart that due to personal reasons Tonya, the owner of The Heart Desires, has decided to shutter the challenge and blog for the next few months effective immediately. Tonya will keep us apprised as she's able. The DT has enjoyed providing inspiration to you and we all wish Tonya the very very best.
But, let's end this post with happier news by announcing the winners and honorable mentions of Challenge #17.
The winner is #24 Cris G. Congrats!
The honorable mentions wowed us too. Congratulations in order of entry to #8 Lea L, #11 Dana Kirby, #14 Christina Luna, and #17 Karin Akesdotter!
Thanks to each and every one of our players. You have made this experience so fun and inspiring. Hopefully we'll be back stronger and better than ever!
