    I think this was the first Monthly Challenge that ALL entries had at least one vote, which is awesome if you ask me!

    Fantastic, Wolf - I hate the process of making branched fringe and can't even imagine making it on this scale - but the results are so well worth it! Look forward to finding out what the new theme is...
