Magnolia Down Under Challenge #155 Inspirational Photo - AND SURPRISE BABY SHOWER FOR LOUISE

Good morning Magnolia Fans!
 Are you ready for another fun week of cardmaking?
I bet you are...
but first we have a little surprise for one of our fantastic DT Members 

Louise!!

Some of you will know Louise - so you will nod your head and smile at what we are about to say, but for those you are yet to have the good fortune of meeting her, lets take a little moment to get a little familiar....

Louise is one of the kindest, most caring and sweetest individuals to set foot in blog land. 
She is always happy, thinking of others before herself and doing anything she can to make someone else's day fantastic. 

She is a true optimist and has to be the most special person to have as a friend.
We are all truly lucky to be able to call her one of ours. 

She is also veeerrry pregnant with her second child, a long awaited gift. 

Louise, Hunny, we would all love to be with you in person to throw you a special baby shower, but as we are spread out all over the globe, we have schemed a little bit and come up with a special party right here at MDUC for you. 

Louise, we led you astray ;) This week's challenge ISN'T what we told you it was, we tricked you so we could surprise you. I hope you forgive us!!

We invite all of you -
our fantastic MDUC friends who join us week in, week out, to help celebrate with Louise.

Which brings us to the challenge this week...

This week's challenge is indeed an
INSPIRATION PHOTO + THEME
but sorry, it is different to the one we gave Louise, haha!!
