Good Morning Crafters, well the weather is a lot better here in the UK the rain seems to have moved on again, lets hope this better weather stays as the children here still have a couple more weeks to go before they have to return to School for the Autumn Term, and because its "Holiday Time" I thought it was a ideal theme for this weeks Challenge.
Last weeks "Use a Ribbon" was extremely popular and again we had record entries and I know that Marie is thrilled at how much you all are enjoying taking part and by the followers we now have, welcome to any new people who have joined us lately Im sure you will be delighted with the images that we have to offer. But before I tell you about this weeks Challenge you will want to know who won last weeks one and that lucky person chosen by Random Org was :-

Here comes a lovely collection of ribbon cards from my teamies. Non from me this time as I have been told by the doctor to keep my left arm still for a few days to give it a rest. I can hardly feel my hand. Not a cozy situation that's for sure. Wendy doesn't have a card for this challenge either but the rest of the gals has done some fabby job! Thanks a lot to each and every one of you!
