Happily Ever Challenged #8 - Winner Announced!

Wow, July seemed to have flown by! (Perhaps it's because it's my only, and LAST, full month of summer vacation! :( Ah well, with a new school year and a new batch of students means new challenges to sharpen my skills. (That's my story and I'm sticking to it!)

I am SO grateful for the turn-out this month with the HEC! I think it's because it was fairly simple (red, white, blue) and timely (being around the U.S. holiday of Independence Day). :) I'll need to remember that for future HECs, if I want this great turn-out!

Thanks to each and all of you who participated. It really means a lot to see such an interest in my challenges.

(Okay, Ted...enough rambling, already! Who won?! Who won?!)

Okay, okay....sheesh.  ;)

I went to my good buddy random.org and we both pulled up this number...

Woot! Nerina!!! My buddy from the PTI forums is the winner! :) She's having quite a month winning challenges, so it only figures her streak keeps going strong!  ;)  I'm happy for her!

Nerina, you will have until August 2 to email me at happilyevercrafter at gmail dot com with your email address to where you want your PTI gift certificate mailed, I'll get right on that!

Oh! I almost forgot!

There's a bonus starting this month!

I've created a handy dandy badge that the winner can proudly display on his/her blog if they so desire. :) (In fact, I'd appreciate it... as it would spread the word of my blog. :) )

Here's what the badge looks like:



Okay, I guess it's more a BLINKIE than a badge. :) I'm pretty proud, as I created it myself. Nothing special, but it dazzles you with its brilliance, doesn't it? *rolls eyes*

Nerina gets to have the maiden voyage blinkie on her own blog. Nerina, when you email me, I'll email you directions to putting it on your blog! :)

Happily Ever Yours,
