I was the lucky winner of a monthly draw! I will post a picture hopefully tomorrow when the camera is charged. It is beautiful! It is a card holder (for lack of maybe a better term!)
It opens up and there are four beautiful cards inside that BRT made! She did make the holder as well! It is absolutely beautiful!! Thank you so much! I am shocked I never win!! :D :D :shock: :D :D

Please take one last look on page 92 about the lottery "themes." I will finalize tomorrow morning so those who want to get started can (for the whole year.) I will post the final list on page one and on the group activity page for this swap. You may make more than one 6" block a month for more than once chance at winning. (THE FINISHED SIZE OF THE BLOCK WILL BE 6.5, my mistake.)
If you are financially able, and if you would like to, please consider mailing along an additional stamp to offset the cost of returning the winning prize each month. (NOT OBLIGATORY.)
Thanks ladies!!
