Hello Folks! I am finally here with the winner announcement from our Raise the Hoof Christmas Celebration that ran from Dec. 1 to Dec. 12 with the event open until Jan. 5th for getting your responses in. I'm sorry it is so late in coming but with back to back big events here at Scribbles Designs, it has taken me this long to find the time to tabulate all the results and get them posted!
Thanks to the small group of people who joined in our Raise the Hoof event. As a refresher, from December 1st to December 12th, we released a new image each day and participants were given simple tasks to do, all related to Santa's reindeer. If someone completed the task of the day, their name was thrown into a draw to win a special prize. Keep reading to find out who those lucky peeps are...
