iNSD Winner Announcement - 2024

 

We had our iNSD challenge and prizes announced on May 4th. Remember how we had to stop Queen Purge from whisking away all our neglected stash? Well, many of our community members were able to use up those supplies before they disappeared!

Now it is time to reap the rewards of that hard work. We are happy to announce the three winners of the gift cards to the Some Assemblage Required online shop.

 

 Here's the link to the very SHORT video of Queen Purge choosing our winners:

Thank you to all who participated in this challenge and to our team of Master Forgers who played along and brought you tons of inspiration.  They absolutely ROCK!
