Good morning Magnolia Fans!

Are you ready for some more creative fun? 

First, we're excited to again introduce Magnolia Stamps as our sponsor:

Magnolia Stamps, based in Boras Sweden, really don't need much of an introduction.
They are the reason this little challenge blog is here and the reason you are all out there crafting and blogging away. They make us all happy and I know we all eagerly anticipate the arrival of each new collection so we can start dreaming up new scenes with the magnificent new stamps.
We are delighted to have them sponsor us this week.

Thank you so much Magnolia!
There is going to be one very happy crafter out there very soon when they win your amazing "Secret Prize Package" from this challenge...

For something different, our Design Team Members have picked their favourite Challenge themes for you to play along with, we all hope that you will like our choices as they are our all time favourite things to do!!!.  To start off we have Debbie Dolphin, and her all time favourite theme to follow is

Magnolia Down Under Challenge #199 {Bling it Baby} - Winner and Top 5

This week our challenge was to "Bling it Baby" and there was some discussion within the group as to what actually constitutes "bling". Since we had a few different ideas we thought we should include pearls, gems, charms, glitter and rhinestones - and anything else that could possibly be thought of as bling - LOL. It's one of those challenges that is open to interpretation. With that decided we cast our votes and this week we'd like to congratulate our winner.......

Jennifer D {52}

Jenny has created a stunning Christmas easel card in beautiful non-traditional colours. Her fabulous details and use of dies add a richness that is completely lush. If you want to see more of Jenny's amazing work you can check out her blog HERE.
