Challenge #28 Winner Announcement

Hello to all our Christmas crafting friends! I'm popping in to announce the winners and our top three Stocking Stuffers from Challenge #28. We had a mere 20 entries in our April challenge which was way down from the previous month. With just six months left until the big event, I am hoping that we'll start to see more entries. Given that the challenge is anything goes with an optional theme, I would have thought more people would be joining us!

Also, please don't forget that if you do follow the theme, make sure that you add FT after your name. I found a few entries this month that qualified by making a card with vintage elements but didn't add the initials when entering. I don't always have a chance to check so please get in the habit of making sure you let us know when you have followed the theme.

Anyway, it is time to get on with the finding out who our winners are for the month of April.

Are you one of those lucky peeps?! Let's find out!

Next, it is time to get on with showcasing the top three. With so many wonderful entries to choose from, it is always such a difficult task for the design team. We did however settle on three awesome creations. So, without further ado, here are our Stocking Stuffers for Challenge #28:

Congrats to our top three Stocking Stuffers! Ans, Teresa and Hazel, please grab a copy of the badge below for your blog.

Everyone who links up two cards each month is eligible to receive a free digital paper. All those who linked up two cards during the month of March have previously been mailed their paper. If you thought that you had linked two, but did not receive a free paper, please contact us and let us know and we'll look into it for you.

The four individuals who linked up a minimum of two cards each during the month of APRIL, qualifying them to receive the digital paper from that month, will receive the Vintage Damask Green paper which received the majority of the votes! I have included the watermark of it, below...

To all of you who linked up during April, thanks ever so much! We are so happy to have all of you with us and hope that you'll continue to link up your holiday cards as you work on your stash for 2017!!!

Papers will be sent to the email address that qualifying participants used when they added their cards to the Link Up. I'm hoping to get them sent by the middle of this month.

As always, we are going to have a random draw from all the entries and give out a set of six digital papers to one lucky individual. The papers are all made so why not have an extra prize! Here is the watermark for the full set...
