Congratulations! - It's Magnolia Monday!

It's the start of a new week and hopefully Mr Blogger will be a good boy all week!
I've started a new little trend for myself and I'm calling it Magnolia Monday!
I tend to neglect my glorious little Maggies with all my DT obligations and so I'm going to try and make a Magnolia card for my Monday blog posts!
Now I managed it on Monday May 2nd and last week Tilda sneaked into Tuesday but it's back to Monday this week!
And to make it all the more fun I'm adding a little Inlinkz below and if you have a Magnolia card on your blog today, Monday May 16th, please link it below for us all to enjoy. But just to be fair if you link up please try and come back and send some love to at least 3 other people who have linked up. Remember you can comment even after the Inlinkz has closed.
There are no prizes, no buttons to grab, just a little fun!
The Inlinkz will be open for 48 hours BUT no back links allowed, only Maggies on Monday please.
