Magnolia Down Under 1st Birthday Bash CANDY Bloghop!!

******UPDATE: CANDY CLOSED*********


Hello there Magnolia Lovers and Welcome to the 1st Birthday Blog Hop for Magnolia Down Under Challenges....!!

We are so excited and thrilled to become 1! Who knew that when Magnolia Down Under Challenges started with only 3 members it would be bigger and better a year on. We are all SO EXCITED that we have decided to do a birthday blog hop and whats better is that all the DT are offering CANDY! To be eligible you have to hop on to each Design Team Member and leave them some comment lovin affection ;) Winners will be announced on Magnolia Down Under Challenges Blog at the end of the challenge and also on the personal DT blogs on whom won their candy. Be sure to check back on the 20th to see if you are the lucky lady or gent!!

If you've just happened across my blog and didn't start at the beginning of the Blog Hop, click HERE to go back to the first stop, but if you have hopped over from Nicole's, then you are on the right track!!


I've coloured in distress inks, did the wonderful circle cut-out shadow effect doily accent combo that I have been overusing lately, the papers are BG and Graphic 45, charm, pins, and flowers are from my stash.

And here is the cancan I am offering to one lucky hopper!!


There's my card, which I will personalize for the winner, unless, of course, it happens to be your birthday, then we'll leave it as is!! The stamp used on my project is the same image in the candy, yours is new though, there is some Stickles, a Copic Spica glitter pen, an assortment of charms and flowers, pearls stems and lace, lace lace!!!! Gorgeous gorgeous lace by Prima and some of that fab stuff that Kellie stocks at Magnolia Down Under!!

Thanks for stopping by.... Now head on over to Tanja's to continue on with the hop!!

Take Care,
Stephanne
