<span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">Good morning sweet peeps and welcome to the very last </span><a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/"><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">Papertake</span></a><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;"> challenge. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It’s a very sad day for me because this has been part of my life for so many years and although my head says it’s time to go, my heart isn't quite there yet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But life has been so hectic for me these last few months and it was getting to the point where I was meeting myself coming back and I felt that I wasn't doing anything properly. Nothing seemed to be 100% which isn’t fair, so something had to give. Some of you will know that it’s also been a bit of a trying time for us with Richard’s mum and that has taken its toll as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not only that, I felt that now was the right time and hope that you understand.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before we get to today's post there are some people I really do need to thank so please bear with me for a minute or so.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">First thanks go to <strong>Steph Mayne</strong>, who started this all off. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She asked me to join the team wayy back then and then when she had to step down, I took it over.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So thank you hunny for the chance you gave me xxx</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Secondly, I have to thank <strong>each and every one of our wonderful sponsors</strong>, past and present, and some of them have been with us for such a long time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It goes without saying that they have played a huge part in the success of our challenge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We could not have done this without you and I have really appreciated your sponsorship, generosity and support xxx</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">And of course to <strong>every single person</strong> who has ever entered the challenge, hugest thanks to you too. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Without you there would be no point in any of this and I know once again that some of you have been playing along with us for years xxx</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally a <strong>massive thank you to the wonderful girls on this team</strong>, again both past and present.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have always had a strong DT and the current one is no exception. Not only are they super talented but they are the nicest girls ever and some have been on here with me for absolute years.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They never fail to produce fantastic work, week in week out – so inspirational.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

So that’s what we did and now it’s over to you, and if you get a sec, don’t forget to check out our individual blogs and see what else we have been up to.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As always, could we ask a huge favour peeps please.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">Could you help to make our job at leaving comments easier by turning off comment verification and enabling comment moderation instead please pretty please xxxx. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It’s ever so easy to do – see our sidebar – and you won’t get spam comments as you can easily reject the comments that you don't want to appear.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Can we remind you nicely that’s it’s fine to combine challenges but please, no back linking.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We hope you understand that it’s only fair to those who make a new card xxx</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">And could we ask that you restrict your number of entries please to no more than 5. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks ever so muchly – we really do appreciate it xxx</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And just to let you know that sometimes it is not possible for the Design Team to leave a comments on every entry, with these Blogger issues that some of us are having at the mo.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But please be assured that we do stop by and we are doing our best and every single eligible entry goes into the draw for our prizes even if we don’t manage to leave you a comment.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
