Thank you to those who ventured along, by entering
our last challenge  - #4 Fold Back Card
Sadly not a popular choice for  this style of card.
We do need to have 5 or more entrants to be able to choose 
3 winners, so Anesha has chosen one winner for this challenge. 


Special Mention
I love the humour in the card, the sentiment must be apt for many.
