"'Sitting Alva" by Beatrix

Hello and a wonderful Wednesday. Welcome to the next challenge week at the "Old Magnolia Challenge" blog. I choose for this week is the sitting Alva from the Jingle Jangle Collection 2008. We want to show you some examples for this special image and perhaps we can give you an inspiration. Please let us know and show it with a comment in this post. I know many of you won´t be able to take part in the challenge because they don´t have this stamp, but some of you may have bought this stamp and will get inspirations to use it.

Thank you for checking us out today. We hope to see you again... here on the Old Magnolia Challenge blog! Greetings from Germany, Bea

Welcome to this new challenge blog!!!

Hello all you dear!

A warm welcome to this new challenge blog.

Please let us introduce - we are:

Beatrix from Germany * Carole from England * Claudia from USA * Jacqueline from Netherlands

We had the idea to pick one old image from the swedish company Magnolia and want to create a card or something else. It is so great to see the very different results with the same image.

We are following this challenge since some months only on our blogs as private challenge but we have been asked by lots of bloggers if they could join in with us. So we have create this challenge blog and we will start Wednesday next week on June 10th.

Please notice: There won’t be prizes or sponsors, it is just going to be a meeting point for everybody to link the cards we all have made with the Magnolia stamps.

In this week we have the challenge on our blogs and not open yet but if you want to see our cards please hop over there and find creations with the "tilda with cupcake".

We all hope to see you next week.

your girls from the "old magnolia challenge" blog.
