You're a Lifesaver! - Magnolia-licious 'Anything Goes'

Hello.

We're midway into our current challenge at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog.  The theme is 'Anything Goes'--what's easier than that!  The Design Team has created cards/projects to inspire you to play along with us.  Please visit the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog to have a look at these creations and to get complete details on the challenge.

This is what I came up with for this challenge--a Thank You card.

The card is actually a twisted easel card.

A closer look at an older Magnolia Stamps image being featured.
