We have a winnerrrrrr!

And the winner of the Christmas giveaway is Amy, who said her favourite thing about Christmas is 'getting together with family from far and wide' and 'making presents for family and friends'.

Yay, Amy! I'm so excited! It was super fun putting all the names in the hat and -- confession -- I was actually nervous when it came to pulling out the winning slip of paper. Amy, email me your mailing address [daniellecentral AT gmail DOT com] and I'll pop your parcel in the mail for you. If I don't hear from you within a week, I'll do a redraw.

Thank you everyone for playing along. I hope this'll be the first giveaway of many. They make me all smiley!
