Winners and DT Favorites: Challenge No. 24

Before I make our official winner announcements, I'd like to point out that our 'Followers - Friend Connect' gadget from above, went missing! :( All that hard work and 'poof', Blogger obliterates it! So, please, keep an eye out for it and if and when it comes back, if you were a follower, please follow us again and if you're a new follower, please click to follow. OR kindly connect with Google+ that's located on our side bar if at all possible. You must be a follower of our blog to be able to collect the prize! I know these two winners were followers because I'd seen them on the list before today.
Thank you! Now... on to the serious business!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Welcome, bloggers! We had a fantastic turnout with 216 entries last week!
We use Random.org to pick our winners. Our sponsor last week was Dr. Digi with TWO images for one lucky winner and Inky Impressions offering THREE digis and ONE sentiment to a second lucky winner!
For Doctor Digi, Random.org chose:
#179 - Traci L.
Please put IDCB Winner No. 24 - DD in the subject line.
For Inky Impressions, Random.org chose:
#206 - lalkygirl
Please put IDCB Winner No. 24 - II in the subject line.
Congratulations! Please send an email to inspirationdestinationcb@gmail.com within 7 days. We will provide you with info on how to collect your prize. Help me out a little, please. I send out images for another challenge blog plus sponsored challenges and I get so confused when someone emails me with the subject line 'Winner'! Ssooo, please, being specific helps so much! :) Be sure to grab our badge from the right side bar to proudly display on your personal blog! Thank you so much for playing along with Inspiration Destination!

  2. Even though the follower's gadget disappeared I still got the notification of this post. Hopefully, I will continue to receive the notifications too.

  3. How strange that it disappeared - I hope it comes back! You still show up in my blog feed so at least it's still doing its job even if it's not there. Congrats to the winners and gorgeous top picks! Wow, some of those are really stunning!
