I find this to be one of the hardest challenges.  Thank you to the entrants for putting forth the effort to design outside of the box.  And a big thank you to both Laurie and Betsy for entering just about every Design Challenge and being committed to trying something new and outside of your comfort zones.

Thank you, Laurie, the same to you! Congratulations on a lovely design!  
Thanks so much, GCU for choosing me for second place!
I am in agreement to what Laurie said, I look forward to the challenges, I always am surprised by how the themes make me try something I would never have thought of! I would be delighted if more artists would give it a go!
