Winners from last challenge are chosen by Random.Org.
Before I announce the winners, I want to let all the participants know that we have a little 'oops!' in our last post. Two Inlinkz were accidentally added to the post. It was too late when it was discovered. Many have added their names and out DTs also have commented. So rather than deleting one of the Inlinkz, we just continued on with it being aware that there are two groups to look into. You might ask how will Random.Org work on choosing the winner if there are two of some numbers. Being the author of this post, I re-assigned the second group with a new number based on the last number entry on the first group. I hope that makes sense. If not, just be assured that both groups have an equal opportunity winning.

29. Donna R

is the winner of 3 images from

STAR STAMPZ.
