Challenge No. 8 - Winner

Finally, I have had a bit of time to sit down and get the winner for challenge 8 sorted.  My youngest has had antibiotics and is now up and about like normal but I've had work to go to the last couple of days and lots of sleepless nights have meant that I'm behind on everything.

As usual, the winner has been chosen by Random.org

and no 38 is AshaLatha R K Prasad.  Congratulations please email me on cardsformen@donnasden.co.uk with your details and I'll forward them on to Heather over at Fresh Brewed Designs to arrange your $10 certificate.


I'd like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsor once again and remind everyone to go over and take a look at her wonderful designs.  Thanks Heather.

Now, I bet you're all waiting to see who's been picked for the top 3.  As ever, it was difficult because the standard of entries is so wonderful.  Keep it up.  Here they are

Sheena B

Dora

Sonia Sellers

Well done, girls, grab the top 3 badge from the sidebar and display it with pride.

Finally, I want to show you all this wonderful card, submitted by (I'm sure) our youngest member, Maddie, who's 8.  She has a blog with her Nana and I'm sure we'll see a lot more from her.  Well done Maddie.

Just a quickie

Youngest boy has had a temperature tonight so very unsettled.  Will do Challenge 8 winner and Top 3 tomorrow.

Off to bed, now.

Challenge No. 8

Challenge no 8 is sponsored by Fresh Brewed Designs which is owned by the wonderful Heather Dennis.  I asked Heather about herself and FBD and here is what she had to say....

Hi. I am Heather Dennis. I am a homeschooling mother of 2 wonderful children, the wife of 12 years to the love of my life, a Christian and the owner of Fresh Brewed Designs.  I have loved to draw and create ever since I was a child. My daughter has inherited my love of art and recently inspired me to start creating again.
All the images in my shop are hand drawn. I offer a wide range of images from coffee, cute and inspirational.I also  love to create custom drawn images, so if you are looking for anything in particular, please feel free to drop me an email.

The prize up for grabs is a $10 gift certificate to spend at Fresh Brewed Designs and our theme this time is 'Fancy Folds'.  By that we mean anything other than a basic bi-fold card.  Of course there's also the golden rule of being for a man/boy.

The challenge is open until midnight BST (British Summer Time) on the 25th April 2010 and the rules are

1. The card must be for a man/boy.
2. You need to follow the theme/sketch that is set.

3. It must be a new card.

Leave your name and a direct link to your entry (not just to your blog) in Mr Linky at the bottom of this post.  If Mr Linky is not there for some reason then leave the details in the comments and I'll add you in when I'm doing the draw.

I made a but of a 'booboo' this week and neglected to give the Design Team all the details until yesterday when Shirley prompted me for the missing information.  Consequently, some may be a bit delayed in posting their card but here are some initial ideas for inspiration.

I'll add in the other DT cards as I get them but hopefully we've given you some ideas.  The details are on each person's individual blog.
