New Challenge Christmas/New Year and Winners Post

Sue here this week as poor Kym has very recently had an operation on her shoulder and yet STILL managed to make a card!!. I am sure you will all join me in wishing her a very speedy recovery .

Only a few more days left till Christmas! How quick did that come around!!

Right Winners First: The generator picked No. 41 Debi B

and the team have picked No. 52 Bonnie

Congratulations to you both . Please Email Me with your FULL name so that I can get your voucher codes to you ASAP.

If you didn't win and just love the Sweet Pea Stamps you are in luck , the store is have a digi sale!!

HERE

Remember , you have more chances of winning our challenges if you use a Sweet Pea Stamp.

The challenge is a nice easy one this time - I am sure, like me ,you may still have one or two cards to make before Christmas and our Challenge is Christmas/New Year. So, even if you are super organized and have done all your Christmas cards,you can still make one or two for the New Year.
