9: Donna Mundinger
25: Laura Love

Since our challenges started we've had a dedicated group of crafters who week in, week out have joined in every single challenge! That's 23 challenges which is a huge achievement by any standards!!!
These dedicated crafters are:

Emily Shroom

Erin F

Jackie Maunder 

Jayne Fisk

Angelique

Alli D

Croms

Make sure you pop over to their blogs to have a look at their creations. They're amazingly talented crafters.

It would have been far too difficult to choose between such talented crafters so we recruited an impartial judge (Anita's Son) to pull a name out of the hat! To say he was a little excited is an understatement!

So here' we are .........


Drumroll please.........

The Winner of the Big Christmas Prize is .......
