Welcome back, bloggers! My 'Dream Team' and I are so happy to have you join us for Challenge No. 135 sponsored by Rick St. Dennis! Check out the fab makes from the Team!

Before we leave, I point out that the winner from my JFF package did not come forward. So I've added more goodies to the package and I'll be picking a USA participant using Random.org. Please know that these items are not used. They are spanking brand new! Maybe not from this week, but never used or opened. Sometimes, I like something so much... I'll buy it twice! Ha! And I am sorry to offer it only to USA participants; however, I'm not the only one to be doing that and I know I won't be the last. The postal system is holding us all hostage! :-\ In any event, there will be TWO lucky winners announced on Thursday, October 19th. :)
