Today, we're kicking off our Spring Blog Hop at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog.
If you're already taking part in the Blog Hop and have arrived here from Suzi's blog, then you're right on track. If you didn't come from her blog then you just may want to start at the beginning, HERE.
My project for this Blog Hop is a Seed Box. I love gardening and I've created this box to store my seeds.
For this gardening scene, I cut out each of the Tilda images.
The inside of the box is divided into 3 compartments: the 2 larger ones for seeds and the smaller one for seed stakes (they're actually large popsicle sticks).
I've made three index cards to separate the seeds into 3 seed-type groups: vegetables, herbs and flowers.
A closer look at the Magnolia Stamps images being featured.

Magnolia Stamps are available from 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, e-mail Diana and I'm sure she'll be happy to bring it in for you.
And other-brand stamps that the store carries include Stamping Bella, Wee Stamps, Wild Rose Studios, Saturated Canary and Crafter's Companion.
There are two ways to win during our Spring Blog Hop:

Both winners will win a $20 Gift Certificate from the Magnolia-licious store.
