Welcome back to LOC! So glad that you could join us for our Spots and/or Stripes Challenge.

 

It is great to see so many different styles of crafting being entered....I think it is well known now that we aren't ONLY a dark themed challenge blog....

We appreciate everyone who enters out challenges, and wish everyone could be a winner....but alas, we can only have one prize winner.

We have the following winning categories -

1. Winner - Who wins the prize from our wonderful Sponsor that week
    

2. Top Picks - These will Win Top Picks badges

              

3. Designer Spotlights - Team Members will pick a make which they like, used a great technique, layout or colouring etc....
  
   

Usually, winner posts will be posted on a Monday, can't guarantee a time, as we have a lot of Design Team members to get hold of lol
         

All our winners, in all categories are voted for and picked by our DT members, who all have very varied tastes, so everyone has a chance.
