WWC71 - The Winner

It's that time again.   Today we pick our winner.  Tic-Tac-Toe challenges are great because a person can choose a relatively easy row of three or really challenge themselves by including one of the techniques which were included in the challenge.  We were excited to see what choices would be made by those linking their creations this week.  While there were fewer link-ups than usual, the participants did not disappoint.  We had some wonderful cards among the link-ups.

This week I'm the hostess (Heidi Weaver) and the excellence of the cards that were linked up made my job difficult.  In the end, however, I picked Steffi Hanuschik's wonderful Christmas shaker card.  The clean lines, cute images, and great shaker nudged her ahead.
