CD Sunday - Butterflies

We have a winner!


You lot did your best to give us a hard time and we did have to have a voting system so it was totally fair. One person got 5 votes out of 6 so that bit was easy.  For the runner up we had three people on 4 votes each and as we all had a different choice we asked Claire our guest designer for the month to cast the deciding vote, so now we have two lucky and talented people.

Our first choice is for this fabulous book card from Kevin


Our second choice is for this pretty blue card from Misty's Mum

Thank you to everyone for making our birthday special and the two winners if you get in touch through the email at the top of the page I will make sure your prizes get to you as soon as possible.

************************

Good morning and a very Happy Easter to you all.

Wow what can I say about all your entries last week, the team have been blown away by your cards and can tell you it's going to be hard to choose a winner and runner up, crazy idea we should have had a draw! lol 

We have decided that as we know we won't be agreeing straight away and will have to discuss the result we will let everyone know by Wednesday so please bear with us. If you have joined us for the first time this week we do hope you will come back again and to our regular followers thank you for being there each week.

 As usual please use something from a CD on your entry.

We have had a few people once again putting in entries which don't follow our few simple rules  so they cannot be entered into our monthly draws.

This is our last week with Claire being our guest designer, I have already extracted a promise that she will come back and join us again later in the year. Thank you Claire for your wonderful designs you have been a very popular and inspirational guest.

Now onto this weeks challenge, another nice and easy one for you, it's butterflies. We have all enjoyed ourselves making the samples and hopefully it will give you a bit of inspiration to join in with us.
