Winner’s Post and Some News

Hello my lovelies and hope you are all OK today and that you are having a lovely week xx

I have the winner of the October challenge and thank you to everybody who took part -
we love seeing what you do with these products we all love so much : )

So this month the lucky girlie is …

…you Marisa Oslavio

Hugest congratulations and if you could email Ali please at alison@tonic-studios.com, she will
get your prize sent out to you.

And here’s what Marisa  did -

.. I think she ticked all the boxes with this fabulous card. I love it.

So this is the point where I would usually say ‘please tune in tomorow and we will have the details of our next challenge’. But sadly and with a heavy heart, I have to tell you that October’s was the last one. We’ve struggled on with low numbers for a while now and we think it’s time to stop.

But before we go, we have to thank everybody who has taken part in the challenges. We’ve loved seeing what you do with these wonderful products and there have been some amazing work shared.

And finally, we would just like to say a massive thank you to the wonderful DT girls who inspire each and every single month, an xxx And last but by no means least, to the people at Tonic who have been so generous with the prizes on offer – they’ve been so generous xx

So take care and keep crafting and hugs to all.

Dawny, Ali and the gang xxx

Take Your Pick October 2017

Good morning lovely crafty Tonic peeps and welcome to the next Win & Tonic challenge.
Thanks again to everybody who joined us last month – what gorgeous makes there were and it was lovely to see  what you did : )

Lots of you have been using the new Win & Tonic facebook page –  you can find it here …

https://www.facebook.com/groups/318826021798173/

... and we hope that it helped anybody who has been struggling to upload their cards.
In case you missed it, if you leave your cards on that FB page,
we will pick them up from there and add them onto here for you so that you are allocated a number
to add you into the random draw (we don’t want it public so you will have to join the group).
It saves you emailing the cards over etc etc so it does seem to help.

Now before we get to the new themes, I just have to draw your attention to the few rules we have, so please see the sidebar and thank you for understanding xx

OK so what’s on for this month?

Well, we have another

So anything festive and Christmas-ey, as long as it has something ‘Tonic’ on it, will be fine.
Or you could use Tonic Christmas dies and products to make a non Christmas card like our Lou did
Or maybe you want to use non Christmas  products to make a Christmas card like Keren did.

Now of course, we have a prize up for grabs and this month it is a cracker of a prize – no, it really is because it’s …

.. this gorgeous Dimensions - Christmas Cracker Treat Box Die Set,
