This is my last week at Winter Wonderland. After 4 years on the DT and about 3 as a DT Co-ordinator I decided it was time for a change. I have loved my time there and the team are wonderful and I shall miss being part of the team, pass the tissues please. I thought it would give me a chance to do something different and the strange thing is that within a few days of making the decision and without anyone but the DT knowing I had an email inviting me to join another lovely DT. So I close one door and have opened another. My first DT card for them will be coming along very very soon so watch this space. I am really excited and delighted to be joining them.
They say things come in threes and I then received another 2 DT offers but I turned them both down as I didn't feel they were right for me at this time. One was a weekly challenge and I didn't want to take on a weekly challenge at the moment and the other one just isn't for me. I couldn't join a DT without feeling I could commit 100% to it as I don't think this is fair. I am amazed at the number of DT's some people manage.
So back to Winter Wonderland where we want you to create something for Christmas with no sentiment. Our sponsor is

You can find my ribbon candy winner below.
Please check out my for sale page where there are several Christmas stamps and a few other stamps still for sale. Many items have been sold and removed from the page.
Edited - I am currently playing about with changing the look of my blog. Getting a bit frustrated as some things don't want to change. I have managed the header but can't change the background at the moment so waiting for the person who made it and added it for me to get back to me as it isn't an HTML code.
