Challenges #88 - "Go mad with embossing"

Lots of announcements this week so please do take a seat . . . !

Firstly we must say a goodbye to Pam who leaves the DT this week and we wish her all the very best in her future crafting endeavours. We will miss her projects greatly.

Secondly, we have to say goodbye to our fab and talented GDT for August, Leesa. It has been a real pleasure to have you join in with us this month and we look forward to working with you again in the very near future. Please put your hands together and give Leesa a huge applause for all her hard work this month.

Thirdly, we have a new GDT for September and that is Debs, so hands together everyone to give her a warm welcome to Fab'n'Funky Challenges.

Fourthly . . . we have a slight change to the Fab'n'Funky format !!! Yep, after much debate we are now going to pick our Top 3 from the previous weeks entrants and there is a new badge in the side bar waiting for the lucky winners. Each week a member of the Fab'n'Funky DT will host a challenge and they in turn will pick the winners from their hosted challenge. The Top 3 will be announced with the following weeks new challenge. We will still use Random.Org to pick the winner of the Challenge prize (offered by our generous sponsors) so that everyone gets the chance to win any goodies on offer.

Finally . . . we need to use Random.Org to pick last weeks challenge winner and the lucky person is . . .
