Good evening dear crafters. We’re sorry for being late again this week with the post but I’m full up with ‘flu and had to ease myself gently into writing the post this evening lol!

We had so many gorgeous entries for last week’s “glitter and pastels” challenge and the DT had a wonderful time visiting your blogs and seeing your amazing work.

Firstly we are going to announce the lucky winner of the 4 digi images courtesy of Pink Gem designs and as always to be fair we used random.org and he chose (I’m sorry I can’t seem to copy the thumbnail tonight but I’m sure you’ll take my word for it lol!):
