Magnolia Down Under Challenge #77 {A Gift for You} - Winner and Top 5 AND Some Exciting News!!!

WOW - we're up and running for 2011 with some FANTASTIC news for all of us here at MDUC. I've been here at MDUC since our very first challenge and have seen some amazing work by our past and present design team and you, our supporters. I'm really proud of everyone on this team - not only are they a talented bunch but they are such lovely people too. But we would like to share a special announcement with you all - MDUC now boasts FIVE members of the Magnolia Dream Team on our DT. The gorgeous and talented Kylie Keuter and equally gorgeous and talented Debbie Dolphin were asked to join the team over the Christmas break - and I'm sure you'll all agree they will both be an amazing asset to Magnolia. I know Camilla, Tanja and April will love working with these girls both here and at Magnolia.

CONGRATULATIONS Kylie and Debbie - from all of us!

Now onto the news you've all be waiting for - the winner's announcement!!!! With 93 FABULOUS entries you have made it a tough decision, and there were some truly AMAZING projects on show. We had lanterns, boxes, advent calenders and gift cards just to name a few ideas - so thank you all for inspiring us. However we do have to pick a winner and this week we'd like to congratulate....
