Congratulations Liza, and congratulations to all others also….
Totally flabbergasted by the final outcome…….
I didnt follow this contest as closely as I did the previous one, but I am happy that this time no “fighting” started (by me…lol)…
Well done to Lunar as well

WOW, when I first seen it, I really thought it’s a practical joke!
OMG, I am so honoured and happy I won (again..lol) THANK YOU so much Lunar Pages for chosing me and for such flattering words about my designs! Some of my good friends participated in this contest (Ophelia Nicholson in the final, and Tom Sramek in 2 of the rounds), I sincerely wished they will win, it’s a shame they didnt, I loved their themes so much but with round 3 everyone has a chance again! :)
Congrats to the other winners, everyone did a fantastic job here, it must be very hard to choose a winner when each theme is beautiful and unique in its own special way here!
I still can’t believe I won, did I really? lol can someone pintch me?

Lilicious is just amazing really. But it would be more than perfect if it would be distrubuted for free download :(
Is it possible to use this theme free on websites? If so where should we download it since I coudn’t see any download location :(
By the way, congrats to the winners ;)
