Winners of December challenge .... and closing down sale

Crafters I just wanted to say it's been a pleasure to get to know you all during our various challenges since 2010 and just to let you know that The Ribbon Girl store will close as soon as the remaining stock has been sold.  If you are looking for a bargain, why not pop over and treat yourself, there is 50% off everything in the store as well as a section where you can buy full rolls/packs at very attractive prices.  There are still more rolls of ribbon to add as soon as I get time.

So sorry for the delay in announcing the winners, but it's been very busy during the closing down sale at The Ribbon Girl store.    Thank you for the beautiful entries into the December 'anything goes' challenge.  Winners must contact me by email within 7 days of this blog post to claim their prizes
The winner of the 1st prize chosen by random.org is No 33

Number 33, Sai Jirawadee who wins the prize of a £10 voucher for the Polkadoodles store
