Week 64 – Top 5 passionista – sorry its late :(

We are so sorry but we seemed to have forgotten to announce the top 5 passionista for week 64 – Andie’s “music” challenge.  It seems all the excitement about the Aqua Markers prize draw got us all confused lol!  Thank you for your gentle reminders and we hope you can all forgive us :) 

So as we’ve kept you waiting for long enough we’ll just get on with it.  Andie had a really difficult decision and she did ask if she could pick 10 but unfortunately it had to be 5!!  Here are Andie’s top 5 passionista for week 64 (Music):
