Just Magnolia Blog Hop - Happy Year One!!



A very happy Friday to everyone and after a few hours of biting a rubber bullet, I am feeling GREAT!!!! The Chemo on Monday and the Shot on Tuesday are well behind me now and I am ready to move on to much more exciting events!!! Thanks so much for all the notes of concern and all of your sweet comments!! Gosh, you all make things so much easier!!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!

Welcome to the Birthday Party of the Just Magnolia Challenge Blog which is one year old! And to celebrate we are running a blog hop which is being sponsored by Simon Says Stamp. Not only are they sponsoring the prize for the regular weekly challenge, there is also an amazing prize that has been sponsored by Simon Says Stamp for the blog hop.

The theme of this week's challenge is Thank-You. For the DT this means a huge thank you to all our lovely followers and entrants each week and also to our amazingly generous sponsors for the fabulous prizes they put up each week. This little set of card and canister filled with chocolate truffles will be on its way to a special member of Simon Says Stamp right away!! For the card I used Bazzill for the base and all matting and part of the DP is PTI, the remaining DP is from the MM English Garden Collection. Gosh and this card would not have been possible without the wonderful gifts I received from my marvelously talented friend Claudia!! Sweetie, thank you so much for the lovely SU border punch and the delightful sentiment stamps!!! Just love them ALL!! I used the darling little Tilda with Three Flowers from Magnolia-licious, colored with Copics. The canister was covered in the same papers with a touch of Webster's Pages trim and Blue Roses on both pieces of the set! Also on the canister I used the cutest little Mini Maggie holding tulips!!! Too cute!!

If you have arrived at my blog first, please start the hop at Just Magnolia so that you will get all of your directions! If you have arrived here from the incredibly talented Dena, you are going in the right direction. You will find some absolutely lovely things along your way and possibly some more sweet stuff...I know I have some shown below....smile!! So please leave comments along the way and make sure you get back to the Simon Says Stamp blog so that you will be eligible for the amazing prize.

The Sweet Stuff that I would love to offer for you for participating in the Just Magnolia Blog Hop and to thank you for your visit to me is below:



1 MS Rose Leaf Punch
1 Bunch of Trico Mulberry Flowers
1 Bow Easy
1 Too Good Gourmet Carrot Cake Cookies in Cute Pot

Please leave your comment before Tuesday,April 20 at Midnight DST!!

And now, I would love to send you on your merry hopping way to the magnificent blog of Jane who I know will have some breathtaking creations for you to see!!

Thank you so much for visiting me and for participating in the Birthday Hop!! I hope you will return to see me often!! Have a wonderful weekend!! Big Maggie Hugs to each of you!!

Grenouille Greetings said...

I was supposed to be going on holiday about the time you made this post. I was held up by volcano ash for six days and used the found time to do household chores rather than fun things like visiting my favourite blogs. I did get away in the end and returned just under 4 weeks later. Another three weeks catching up with other things have passed and now, finally, I am able to sit down and take a ride through your lovely creations. I think I saw this just before I left but didn't comment. Now I have time - it is way tooo cute not to stop and say so. Adorable! Warmest wishes, Lesley
