Welcome to Our New Inspiration Challenge

January 24, 2011

Hello everyone in Magnolia-land - happy Monday evening! I hope you are all just great for this time of year :o)


**Big Congratulations to Lady Diana and her DH! They welcomed a new grandson on Saturday!!! Isn't that awesome :o) A little brother for their granddaughter.
Big huge wishes for the little guy, that he has a fantastic and long life ahead.**

*On a sad note I am sorry to tell you that both Chrissy Le and Maria Cossa-Rossi are no longer able to be on our Design Team because of serious health issues within their families.
We are all sad to say goodbye to them as we loved them and their work so very much.
I would like to wish them both all the best and let them know that we are all praying for their situations.*

Now on to our reason for being here!

I am so HAPPY to see 60 entries in our last colour challenge!! That is the second largest amount we have had!!! I am thrilled that so many of you are having fun playing with us :o)
WOW the cards were awesome once again.There were some really different ideas submitted both in shapes and folds. I was so excited to see how many of you are 'thinking outside the box'! What fun it was to visit each of you and find what you had made.

So Mr. Linky had some work to do again tonight!
He has been hiding for a while but was out in form to pick us a new winner.
The person who has won a fabulous $25.00 GIFT CERTIFICATE is...............


Number : 49



CONGRATULATIONS to: REGINA!!!!!

*Please send Diana an email to: ladydian@shaw.ca - to find out how to collect your prize and then go shopping for some fabulous new MAGNOLIA STAMPS!

I am sure you remember that it is CABIO's month for picking Challenges for us.
She picked a beautiful picture for our Inspiration this month:
At first it seems a quiet peaceful scene and you might wonder what you can make..........but once you study it for a while you see lots of things within it that you can use for ideas.

Just take a look at what your wonderful Design Team has come up with this time!!!








Now I know you are all ready to make those cards. I was astounded to see how quickly the first one popped onto the blog for the Colour Challenge, so am expecting new cards almost immediately * grin.

Once again 'dear Diana' is offering a wonderful prize:
I know none of us has all the Maggies we would like, so please play along with us and be the winner of this fab gift!!
Till next time ~
