Another First ~ It’s a Magnolia

I love seeing all the wonderful creations using Magnolia stamps and have tried my hardest to win one of countless challenges. Let’s just say Random.org must be a dog lover for Cat Spicer never seems to be chosen. Simon Says Stamp to the rescue! http://www.simonsaysstamp.com Heidi has a nice assortment of Magnolia stamps in stock. Of course I had to pick out Tilda holding a cat. I was able to use another Midnight Madness sketch for my creation. (Please see the Ins and Outs for links to the challenge websites and feel free to join in the fun).
