I hope you're all ready to be challenged as I have something a bit different waiting for you this fortnight. I am challenging you all to create a coordinating tag along with your birthday card. It takes little time to do and they're wonderful to have on hand for gift bags and the like. I do hope you're game as I'd love to see a full gallery!</span></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Before we get to the fabulous cards below, I want to welcome our newest guest, Vicky Hayes!

I’ve been crafting for about 15 years and started my blog when I retired from full-time work as an opportunity to share ideas and inspiration with fellow crafters. In between crafting and attending my local church, I love to spend time with family or having lunch with friends (and then going to my Slimming World group to deal with the consequences!) <div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Next, we also have <b><a href="https://cullen-arycreations.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Wanda Cullen</span></a></b> joining us today as she was the overall winner from our last challenge using our topping.
