But before I show you what the Design Team have created for you, Im sure you will want to know who won last weeks "Wings and Things" Challenge, and that lucky person is :-

Challenge #59 - "Buttons and Bows"

Good Morning Everyone, I do hope that you all enjoyed your Easter weekend, ours was very eventfull, firstly I have a crown fall out on Good Friday, and my little dog who had some dew claws removed the previous Wednesday had to go on Saturday to have some stitches replaced as she'd actually pulled them out, now she sports a collar like a lampshade, but even with this on shes still able to get at her feet, luckily not to be able to do the damage she had done before as shes now also sporting bright yellow socks.
Anyway Im sure you dont want to hear about that but what this weeks Challenge is all about and we want you to create a card with lots of "Buttons and Bows" on it, and Im sure that wont be a problem as they are with flowers the top embellishments we all love to use. But before I show you what my Design Team have created for you Im sure you will want to know who won last weeks "Anything Goes with Easter in Mind" Challenge and that lucky person is :-

Challenge time!

Hello and good morning! Happy Easter to you all! I hope you all will rest and have a good time during these extra days off from work. At the moment we have very low temperatures here in Sweden and it  kind of feels like winter again. It really felt good to make an Easter project to get the feeling of spring and soon summer will be here too. So wherever you are, I hope you have it warmer than I do. LoL

Even if it's only a few days to Easter we decided to have the challenge Anything goes - With Easter in mind. You can do a scrappage about your Easter if you wish to, a card, a basket etc. Anything you can think of that you connect to Easter.

And with this said we need to find a winner from last weeks Easter Challenge. Mr Random has done his work and found a winner! That would be entry no 95! KBrandy4! Congratulations to you!


Here are your random numbers:

95
