Our current challenge at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog is 'Monochromatic'. Pick one colour and stick with it! Visit the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog for complete challenge details and how you can join in the fun. And check out the fabulous cards that my DT teammates have created for your inspirations.
I love this monochromatic theme! It was sooo... much easier finding designer/patterned papers in various shades of one colour rather than trying to find co-ordinating papers for colour combo that works. The colour I've chosen for my card is green--more specifically olive green.
And the inside of my card...
Close-ups of the Magnolia images being featured:
- Princess Pea Tilda from the Once Upon A Time Collection 2013
- Virgo Tilda from the Zodiac Collection 2014
The stamps for these images, as well as other equally adorable images can be found at Magnolia-licious, Diana's on-line store where she carries a large selection of both full-size and mini Magnolia stamps. And if you don't see the particular one you are looking for, ask Diana if she can bring it in for you. Check out also the stamps from Wee Stamps, Wild Rose Studios and Candibeans.
Prices are discounted!
Magnolia-licious also carries cutting dies from various companies including Memory Box, PoppyStamps, Magnolia Doohickey. ALL dies are currently on SALE at 25% off!!! Have a look!
You get excellent customer service and what's more, you get to earn 2% in-store credit to be applied to future purchases. How cool is that!
