I am excited to share that this week’s sponsor is Magnolia-Licious!
A fabulous store selling the beloved Magnolia range of rubber stamps!
A little about Magnolia-Licious (from Zoe’s view!)
Magnolia-Licious was started by Diana Crick and has one of the largest selections of Magnolia Stamps in Northern America.
It has grown quickly with the world-wide love of Magnolia Stamps and the fabulous service that Diana offers.
There is a fabulous Magnolia Yahoo Group which Diana is a member and I often read messages expressing how wonderful and helpful Diana has been.
Magnolia-Licious has recently become the exclusive supplier of the NEW Mini range of Magnolia stamps in the USA.
If you love Maggies then you are sure to love the variety available at Magnolia-Licious!
Diana has offered the lucky winner of this challenge a Romantic Lace Border Doohickey!
hmmm.. do you think I could get away with an alias so I have a chance at winning too? hehee
