The winner of the “Be creative and win” – 2009 is the fantastic picture “Cold” by Sena C.

The sick Familia cup made us want to curl up under our Plaid with a cup of hot Choclate, especially these days when Copenhagen is ice cold and covered in snow. This picture encourages for some “local warming” at home.

There can only be one ! But we fell in love with this picture of a dog digging in the Spine Rug, so we made up a new price “The Creative Ninja ‘Award” that goes to ; Hannah L for “Hiding”

See all the great submission on our Flickr account
