Magnolia Down Under Challenge #196 {Move it Baby} - Winner and Top 5

We here at Magnolia Down Under Challenges feel that in order to grow as crafters you need to step outside of your comfort zone sometimes, and to do that we need to give you challenges that DO challenge you. This one was one of those and I can tell you it even had a few of the DT scratching their heads and asking "why???". But you have to agree that the DT and you guys stepped up and came up with some AMAZING creations!  But don't stress - we won't always make you think too hard ;)

And now the moment you've all been waiting for - this week we'd like to congratulate our fabulous winner......


Katie K {25}

All I can say is WOW - what an amazing project! Katie has created a perpetual calender with a wheel which spins to reveal the months and 2 funky rocks which hide the numbers for the days! And I love the whole Western vibe too. And then there are 2 drawers underneath with their rocky embossed finish. Well Katie certainly took our challenge and blew our minds with her creativity. If you want to see more of Katie's gorgeous work you can check out her blog HERE.

Katie can you please contact us at magnoliadownunder@gmail.com to claim your winner's badge and prize. 

We also have an amazing Top Five for you. These are listed in numerical order and we would like to congratulate...


The Top 5 picks are all linked back to the original entries to make it easier for you guys to go and check them out. Please grab our gorgeous Top 5 badge from the sidebar and display it proudly on your blog to let everyone know how fabulous we think your work is! 

Thanks so much for joining us all this week and we hope you'll pop back in a few hours time to check out the next challenge.
