Papercraft Inspirations winner

The last of our party competitions was the weekend challenge, sponsored by Papercraft Inspirations, and before we go any further, I need to say two things.

1. Have you seen Julie’s feature in the current issue (and if not, why not? You know how good she is…)

2. Even though it’s too late to enter the competition, you can still download and use the printables for other party-ish events and occasions.

Should you need any extra inspiration, the following are some of our favourite weekend challenge entries.

Leo (Crafty Templates)

Joyce

Donna

Dolly

Carmen

Rosie

Fertility Flower

Thanks so much to everyone who took part and made something – it really would be much too hard to pick out a favourite, so we’ve gone the random route again. Instead of numbers (because, confusingly, not all commenters entered the challenge, and not all entries commented), I wrote down everyone’s name on a scrap of paper, folded them up and – because there’s nothing like a good cliché – pulled one out of my favourite hat at random.

Congratulations, Dolly! Drop me an email with your postal address and I’ll pass it on to Jenny at Papercraft Inspirations so you can enjoy a whole year of reading.

While that last little bit of business means the party really is over now, don’t forget you can still go back and relive your favourite bits by clicking through the links to your right.

Me and Julie? We’re going to share the washing up, take down the decorations and finish off a few last cake crumbs. Sigh…

More winners

Evening all.

I feel a little like a dodgy talent-show host stringing out the winners from our party weekend in this way, but I like to think it helps to make the fun last longer. Are you ready for a couple more?

First of all Ruth’s delicious Sumptuosity giveaway, the Alice in Wonderland mirror, goes to randomly-selected commenter number 15.

Congratulations, Alison!

Drop us an email with your contact details (thecopyandpasteproject [at] googlemail.com), so we can pass them on to the super-generous types at Sumptuosity.

And then there was my little party-bag giveaway.

This time, the random generator picked out number 13.

Hurrah! Becky, send me your details at the same email address as before, and I’ll mail your parcel out later this week.

Thanks so much to everyone who entered and left comments – we’ve loved reading them, and will be offering up more chances to win very soon.

PS. What's that you say? One more giveaway to give away. Well, yes there is, you sharp-eyed thing you, but we're going to make you wait just a tiny bit longer for it. Because we're mean like that....

Win. Free. Stuff. Reminder!

Hello again.

If I said I'd fully recovered from our "30 posts in 2.5 days 'birthdaversay' blogging bonanza" ... then I'd be lying. Let's just say that with the help of a day off work and lots of illuminating under-eye conceale .... I'll make it through the day!

We can't thank you enough for all your wonderful support, comments and feedback on our party. We've been thrilled at the response and delighted that our early, loyal readers are still supporting us at the same time that first-time readers are landing. You're all very welcome, anytime.

All we can do is promise that we'll keep offering:

• new projects;
• inspirational guests;
• chances to guest-blog for us:
• tutorials;
• and giveaways throughout another year.

Until then, let me remind you of the giveaways which you can still enter. You have until late Sunday night [UK time] to enter [see each post for exact details].

If you'd like to win a year's subscription to Papercraft Inspirations magaze [home of our guest-blogger Jo Kill, my brand new 'Scrapbooking for Cardmakers' series and Kirsty's upcoming projects] there's still plenty of time to for you to download Kirsty's fabulous designs:

As for those of you who've already answered the 'What are you like?' set of questions ..... thank you!!!! I've had so much fun [and even a few shivers] reading through them all. It's also been fantastic to see how many of you left comments for each other. It's been truly lovely to see you hopping between blogs and chatting between yourselves! I promise to reveal my answers soon too.

Right then, sun's shining, sky's blue have some cards to make and a baby to visit ..... year 2 of Copy+Paste is treating me kindly so far!
