Challenge 10 - just checking

Hi all,
I hope you had a wonderful fortnight.  Thank you so much to everyone who joined in our last challenge.  It seems that animals are a popular subject.  I would like to apologise for Mr Linky disappearing at the beginning of the challenge, but rest assured that everyone (those on Mr Linky and those who linked their project in the comments box were seen and in with a chance to win and be in our top three).
We had two sponsors for our last challenge, so we have two winners.  We had 36 entries in the comments section, so I added these after the cards in Mr Linky, giving us 191 entries.  I put this into random.org, AND:
The winner of the prize from Robyn's Fetish is:

167 - Bass Lady

Congratulations.
The winner of the prize from Crafty Individuals is:

139 - Carole

Congratulations.
Please email us (email in the sidebar) to claim your prizes.

Now, here is our top three, chosen by Sandra T:

#8 Susan Kennedy
#21 Norma
#105 Jenn-Jax Bean Stalks

Congratulations to you all.

Now, over to our new challenge.  We are sponsored by the wonderful Crafty Individuals.  Our theme is Just Checking, so we would love to see some kind of check pattern on your projects.
Here is some inspiration from our fabulous DT:
