The Ronald Mcdonald house winners are.... Cher and Tracey. We know that some of you are behind and are still sending in those tabs, so and thank you! We could only pick 2 winners this time due to time constraints! Thanks for playing along and ladies please contact us via our email so that we can mail out your prizes!

Well It's that time again friends. We have a new and simple challenge. Our focus this challenge is for ailing children and their families. We will be supporting the Ronald McDonald House. If you are unaware of what the Ronald McDonald house is, here is a description of their services taken from their website:

The idea behind the Orange County Ronald McDonald House is simple: provide a comfortable and affordable “home away from home” for families shouldering the burdens associated with a child who is being treated at a nearby hospital. Some children must travel great distances to get the medical attention they need. Hospital treatments may last a day, a month or more than a year. For the families of these children, affordable accommodations are few and far between. Often, they are limited to costly hotels or unforgiving hospital chairs. The Orange County Ronald McDonald House offers a comfortable, supportive and affordable alternative for these families. It’s a temporary home near their child’s hospital where they can sleep, eat, relax and find encouragement from others. It is much more than just a nice place to stay. It helps to anchor families in very trying times. It can reduce stress by providing a venue where people can talk things out with others who are wrestling with the same issues.


This challenge is sponsored by Bam POP and Illyse one of our Fabulous designers! Thank you bunches! The prizes for this challenge include: 2 sets BAM POP chipboard sentence bubbles and a set of Chipboard Heidi Swaap frames. Let's here it for our sponsors...WOOHOO!


Here are the Design team's sample layouts!

Challenge Two: Oh my this is EASY! Now you soda drinkers before you trash that soda can, pull of that tab and set it aside. Collect as many soda tabs as you can and send them our way! Yes it is true..they are worth something to us...well actually they are worth something to the Ronald McDonald house. You see, they are recyclable and....we can turn them in to a recycling center who will in turn write a check to The Ronald McDonald house. It is a win win situation! You recycle and do the earth some good and we send a check to the Ronald McDonald house for the recycling dollars raised!

***Remember. We do not need the entire can..ONLY THE TABS :0)


And..as usual, do one challenge,get one entry into the raffle, complete two challenges, get two entries into the raffle for our fun chipboard prizes.
