Good morning Magnolia Fans!
Welcome back to another fun week at Magnolia Down Under Challenges. 
As the holiday season draws near, we have a simpler challenge for you this week. It seems that our "Bottle Tag" challenge last week didn't tickle as many of your fancies as we had hoped!

This week the challenge is easy - a nice simple sketch! But of course you can make it as elaborate or as CAS as you wish! 


And for our winner this week we have this cute little stamp - Tilda with small gift.
