The Christmas Countdown has officially come to an end. We have enjoyed the Design Team's contributions over the past 10 weeks and I want to thank them for their inspiration and the time they have spent sharing their ideas.

26 others of you also contributed through the weeks and we thank you for joining in!! We have put all 26 names in a hat and the winner of the the $50 Christmas Goodie Bag is... Margaret C! Well done (we'll send on to you on our return mid-Jan).

We have a winner for this week's "Comment" competition. Well done to Axel (Carol) who has won a $50 Christmas Goodie bag from Artfull Crafts. We'll send it out mid-Jan when I return from holiday!

Thanks for all the people who commented over the past few weeks. It's a great encouragement to read the comments!

We trust that you had an emjoyable Christmas Day and wish you well for 2011. We look forward to inspiring you throughout the year.

I'm sitting here at the campsite in Nelson. It's a bit chilly - but it's great to be on holiday! When I do some crafts I'll load it up online.
