Winner of challenge #14

Once again it was time to pick another winner for the lovely prize sponsored by our very own Jennifer and her company Page At A Time.

I gave you all numbers in the post that Carolyn so kindly does. Wrote the numbers on pieces of paper, put them in a bowl and let my little girl (she's only 2.5 and i think she thought i was going mad as she was laughing at me putting paper in her bowl.......lol, she is now pretending to cook with them!!) pick a number.

When she gave me the paper and i said 'the winner is..........................number 8' she cheered for joy bless her.

So from me, my girl and the rest of the HM team congrats to number 8 - Shary.

Please email me your details so i can pass them on to Jennifer.

Thanks. xx

Didn't I tell you? I bet these wonderful creations have inspired you, and made you hum or sing a few Christmas tunes while you were browsing:o)

I also wanted to add a note...please, when you are linking your beautiful creations, do not link them here because I do not check here as often as I do the comments thread under the current week's DT samples. I do not want to miss anyone, or submit the links in the wrong order. I hope you understand and that I have not offended anyone. Have a GREAT week:o)

Hugs!

Carolyn
