Week 141–Winner & Top 5 Passionista

Oh my goodness I am so sorry for being so late with the post this week!  I had my son’s parents evening earlier and he did so well we went for pizza to celebrate and then caught up on some TV together – and the post completely slipped my mind – oops!  Well I’d better get on with it. 

We had so many gorgeous entries for last week’s “animals” challenge and it was wonderful for the DT to see all your super cute animals whilst visiting your blogs.  Firstly we are going to announce the lucky winner of the 6 digi images courtesy of DigiStamp Boutique and as always we used random.org to make it fair.  There were 92 linked entries and 1 email entry and the lucky chosen one is:

No.54

Elaine

Congratulations Elaine.  Such a gorgeous card and the image is so adorable.  Please email us and we will arrange for you to receive your prize.

Now onto the top 5 passionista and Heidi had such a difficult decision as there were so many gorgeous entries to choose from.  However after much deliberation here are her favourite 5:

Denise G

Jane

We hope you have a wonderful week – enjoy the lovely weather while it lasts!  Don’t forget to check out our new challenge “ribbons and buttons” – full details in the post below.

I would like to apologise if some of you did not get a comment from one the DT this week, we’ve had a lot of illness in the team over the last few weeks and it has taken it’s toll on the commenting rota – we are really sorry as we know how important receiving a comment is, especially as you’ve taken the time to enter our challenge.  Hopefully everything will return to normal next week once we’ve managed to rid ourselves of the dreaded lurgy!!
