Oh my goodness you guys had us drooling over your gorgeous entries this week. With so many talented people and fabulous challenges out there we feel very lucky that so many of you want to come along and play with us. With all this fabulous eye candy to check out you had the votes split across many of the entries - but we do have a winner and this week we'd like to congratulate......

Yulis {68}

Yulis created a fabulous book box with so many gorgeous details - inside and out - and her beautiful soft colouring makes Tilda a worthy centrepiece on the front. With such an amazing project I just couldn't do it justice by showcasing just one photo! And how appropriate that Yulis used one of the Aussie release images the week that Magnolia visited us here in Australia. If you want to see more of Yulis' wonderful work you can check out her blog HERE.

A HUGE Apology to our wonderful August GDT Kitty

Unfortunately in life things get away from us sometimes and last week this happened to our wonderful GDT and prize co-ordinator Karen. Karen is in the middle of moving house and also had an interstate trip last weekend and somehow our AMAZING August GDT Kirsty-Anne's card missed out on the BINGO post. We humbly apologise to Kitty for this mix-up - her work has been fabulous for us and her BINGO card was no exception. 

We are taking the opportunity now to showcase her card for you - and hopefully inspire you to give it a go - you still have a few days left. You can find the BINGO card in the challenge post!

Thanx again Kitty for your FABULOUS creations - you can check out more of her gorgeous work on her blog HERE.

Magnolia Down Under Challenge #161 {All Stitched Up} - Winner and Top 5

 I have always loved the look of stitching on cards and you gals have certainly reminded me why with your gorgeous entries. I know I would use stitching a lot more often if I had somewhere to keep my sewing machine set up - but never mind - it's fun to get it out and play on the odd occasion. And now it's time to announce this week's winner, congratulations.....

Marika {33}

I just love how Marika has used the challenge - she has not only used stitching on her card she has created her whole scene around sewing - GORGEOUS! If you want to see more of your Marika's beautiful work you can check out her blog HERE.
