Announcing the final MIM winner

Hi MIM friends.

Oh my you lot made me cry this week! Thank you so much for your wonderful comments. What a lovely community this is. I am so glad that you have all enjoyed the last few years here at MIM. I know I have and I have made some really wonderful friends. Thank you to those too who suggested that I could pass MIM on to someone else to run. I know it is probably quite selfish of me but I will hold on to it as I would really like to be able to come back to it eventually.

We really have gone out on a high with so many amazing entries shared last week.

I would like to feature this lovely card by

LINDA

Thank you for sharing this beautiful card with us Linda, the whole arrangement is just lovely.

Our final winning commenter is

Andrea W who left a lovely comment for Jackie C

Congratulations Andrea! Thank you for getting in to the spirit of MIM.

Please contact me to organise your prize.

Now I have not been able to contact the last two winners due to some email difficulties I was experience.

Could Loz and Karen could please contact me again.

Well that's all folks :(

Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for being apart of this challenge blog over the last few years.

I hope to find some time to do some blog surfing so I will be seeing you around!

For those of you on Facebook I will be featuring cards that catch my eye on my 

Pink Paper Paradise 

Facebook page.

Please keep the spirit of this blog going by continuing to visit blogs and leave some love because it is the support of our fellow crafters that keeps us inspired.

Love and Hugs to you all.

MIM #182 Final Make It Monday linky party

                        FINAL MAKE IT MONDAY

This has to be one of the hardest posts I have written in the last few years....

I know that this news will be disapointing to many of you and I am sorry for that.

The Make It Monday linky party has been running for just over three years now and it has been absolutely wonderful but I am just finding it difficult to keep up with running the linky party and have decided to take a break  and concentrate on home and family for a while.

I want to thank the amazing MIM design team both past and present for their friendship and commitment over the last few years. They are by far the best group of ladies and I have enjoyed working with them. 

I also thank each and everyone of you who have joined in here and shared your fabulous creations with us each week. 

I will be leaving this blog up so that anyone who wants to browse through the past linky parties can and who knows perhaps after a while I might start it up again..........

But for now lets get this last linky party off and running!

Our featured entry comes to us from 

KELLY

Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps: A Short Essay

That was two years ago. Today Bugaboo Stamps is one of the leading companies in digital images, and we're still growing!  From seriously snarky to sugary sweet to sublimely soulful all the way over to the other side of the super sexy spectrum, you're bound to find all that you need and more to create your paper projects.  Jodie works very hard to provide New Releases and Freebies every week! 

 If your taste runs to rubber (and you know who you are), you can find Bugaboo Stamps   atTotally Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT   for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug. 

Bugaboo Stamps are offering a very generous prize of winner's choice of 7 single digis!

http://www.scrappersdelights.com/store/

My name is Janice (AKA Scrapper's Delights) I'm 39 years old and live in the UK.

I discovered the digital scrap booking world November 2008 & I started to Design in February 2009

"As far back as I can remember my mum always made a card and cake for our Birthday, which always meant more than any bought one....and yes I still get a made card lol 

The main thing I love about digital images is that there are no rubber marks ....and believe me there would be a few lol. "

As a child I have always been very creative with an active imagination

"I get my inspiration from the child in me the little girl who always dreamt of fairies and far away magical lands ... Filled with rainbows and unicorns.My digital creations allow me to bring them to life for everyone to enjoy."

Janice is generously offering our winner 3 images of their choice.
