Regarding problems with Linky Tools
Update - I've received this from Brent at Linky Tools:
Here's the issue... the site has over 18K old users with 9+ MILLION old image files. So it is really bogging the system down. I am in the process of spring cleaning the old users and files. I have no idea how long it will take (a few days) and I apologize for whatever inconvenience and aggravation it causes. I'm working hard to resolve it. Linky Tools has run very smoothly for many years... I hope to have this cleared up as fast as possible.
It seems to be OK now ... hope you can add your entries.
Thank you for all lovely entries for last week's challenge - 45 super festive entries.
We're looking forward to seeing your festive designs this week.

Every CHNC challenge is 'anything goes as long as it's Christmas', which will, hopefully, encourage as many crafters as possible to join in with their festive creations. However, there will always be an optional theme, which this week is 'use a snowflake or two or more'. I want to stress that this is purely optional.
Challenge 444:
anything goes as long as it's Christmas
optional theme: use a snowflake or two or more
Every week a prize is given to a randomly chosen winner - this is the prize I'm giving for this week:
