Highest Ranked Entries for BITTER and SWEET
Posted: Thu Jun 11, 2009 8:32 pm
Hi Challengeers.
Once again it's time to give a bit of encouragement to all those who didn't quite make it to the top in the BITTER and SWEET Challenge, but still did very well.
As always, competition was intense for this topic, so if your entry appears on any of the lists below, then you definitely deserve a pat on the back. Well done.
Love, Deb
