BINGO....Please checkout the challenge for the grid

For this challenge we are so lucky to have Mulberry Crafts sponsoring us.....


MuberryCraftsUK online shop is a Home-Based business run by Bev .
At the moment we are focussing on providing miniature flowers made from genuine mulberry paper for crafts use - although we have a small selection of non -paper crafts too. Why mulberry paper? Because they are robust, realistic look and last longer than ordinary paper and it provide a sustainable income for people in the cottage industry. In due course we will be introducing more of  other craft materials which is not related to mulberry paper.
