Finally... we have a winner!

Hi there!

Hope you had a great weekend and are kicking off a great week! :) Today I have a winner for the $25 in GingerBread Ladies collabs giveaway. I used Random.org to choose and this is what it came up with:

Yay! I love when Random.org picks #1 - doesn't seem to happen very often. I've done quite a few giveaways in the year or so I've been blogging and its only picked #1 twice! So the winner is: EhKho!!! I'll be sending out an e-mail later on today with the information that you need to go shopping! :)

Be sure to come back and visit on Wednesday when I'll be posting a yummy recipe for you all to try out! :)

Have a great day!

With that said - there are 6 different speed scrap/chat options for you this weekend at GingerScraps and many more challenges that are being awarded DOUBLE points. You can keep up with all the happenings for this weekend in this part of the forum. Plus don't forget the AWESOME sale that will be going on all weekend!!!

So - to kick off the chats for the weekend - our very own Mel will be hosting a speed scrap Friday 5/6 at 2:30 EST sponsored by none other than Pretty in Green! You won't want to miss this!

So be sure to fill up your calendar (or if your like me - set an alarm on your cell phone) with all the exciting events going on this weekend so that you don't miss anything! We look forward to seeing you in the forum! :)
