Welcome, welcome to the 76th annual Hunger Games! Here is a message from Annie, "As you all know I posted a challenge with my Hunger Games inspired projects. Since I didn't get any comments linking me to anyone's project, we will base this year's Hunger Games on comments." Wasn't that lovely? So, let's begin.

The tribute from District 1 winning a special prize is Soufiane!
District 2's tribute is Kelly Sas!
Amy J. is District 3's tribute!
Plus, Jennifer Ashley DeGough is participating as the tribute from District 4!

The Hunger Games is over and Tracy M. comes out triumphant because she commented on every post! She even commented on District 2 twice and became a follower. That means that she will get an extra special prize!

A Fiskars Limited Edition Jenni Bowlin Butterfly Lever Punch plus a little something more.

Here is our final message from Annie, "Congratulations to everyone who got a prize and thank you to everyone who commented whether you are a tribute or not. If you did get your name called on reaping day may you please email me your address so I can send you your special prize as soon as possible."

Thank you for coming and may the odds be ever in your favor.
