Happy Sunday dear blogging friends!

And how is the New Year treating you so far...I can't believe that we are almost at the end of January!!  

Today the Sweet Magnolia team at Lovely hAnglar or Sweet Magnolia are here to remind you that you still have some time to join us in our first challenge of 2018...AND...the theme can't be any easier...it's everyone's favourite..."Anything Goes"...our fabulous sponsor is Wild Orchid Crafts!

ALSO...SO EXCITING!!...

We are looking for a couple more Maggie lovers to join our  Mid-way team, so if you would   like to join a friendly family, there are two ways you can enter:

Put DT after your name when you link up your card OR email either Jay or myself (our addresses are in the side bar) including a link to your blog.

All we ask is that you make a card once a month following the set theme, comment on the challenge entries (you will be given a number)  and if possible share on Facebook, Instagram etc.

So for my card today...I have wanted to try the "twist and pop" style card...I first saw this on Davinia Woods blog...Davinia kindly provides a link to a fabulous tutorial by Rina...you can find it HERE!!
