Before we showcase this week's DT Magnolia cards, we have some wonderful news...
We have a new member on our Design Team!

Please welcome Mae!!
Here's a little about Mae...
I live in Chicago, IL with my hubby Sam and our sin Edriann. We are both registered nurses but as of now, I am homeschooling my son. He has ADHD and it's my 4th yr homeschooling him. We just celebrated out 15th wedding anniversary this month (April 1) and I will be turning 30 "something" (LOL!!!) next Month (May 23). I started "stamping and creating" last sept 2011 and Stamp and Create was one of my favorites! I tried Copics, Prisma pencils and watercolor pencils but I get so comfortable with Distress Inks when I color my images. But I do try to use other mediums to get out of my comfort zone. It's been just (barely) 6 months since I started doing this so I still consider myself a beginner and a newbie but I'm so honored to be on the team.

I love watching sports (NBA & football) with my boys. When the weather is nice, we go out riding our bikes. I am a home-buddy but I do get out with friends once in a while. But ever since I started card making/stamping/coloring...I enjoying blog hopping to get inspiration. I don't have friends who have the same interest as I have so I just be-friend crafters on Facebook and on blogs so I can share my love for crafts.

Mae will start us off with samples using Magnolia stamps on sale this week...

Lacey
Lacy used Secret Tilda along with Tigerlilly Paper from Kaisercraft, Romantic Lace DooHickey, Party Mini Letter Seals from Whimsy Stamps, and pearls.

Vicky has used Edwin's Knights Castle from Magnolia's Prince and Princesses release. The papers are My Minds Eye Miss Caroline Fiddlesticks. The gorgeous brads are American Crafts, elements in neutral.
Also by Vicky this card in which she has used Winter skating Tilda by Magnolia with last christmas's lost and founds Christmas paper by my minds eye. The tag that I have used is by Magnolia called Bloomy Tag as is the gorgeous Spruce tree die.

Jeanette has also used Edwin's Knights Castle to help create this medieval scene card. She has also used Medieval Tilda and Tilda's Princess Horse. All these stamps can be found in Magnolia's Prince & Princesses Collection. She embellished her card with assorted Prima Flowers and added a Crown charm to the upper left-hand side. These crowns are the perfect to use with this collection!

We don't have a Product Spotlight Sale this week since we have the Spring Break sale going on.

While I'm away, how about some crafty inspiration?


Lacey used the fun Sister and Brother stamp from Magnolia to create this anniversary card for my in-laws (yeah, I know...it's supposed to represent siblings, but it still makes a cute "young love" card - and at their 51st anniversary, my in-laws are still as in love as they were when they got married)!! The papers are My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Dolled Up paired with some pewter pearls, ribbon, bow easy, adage ticket, Pennant Banner dies from Whimsy Stamps, and Romantic Lace Magnolia DooHickey.

Vicky has used Jean Luc playing ball with Claude from the Sarah Kay range at Stampavie, a perfect card for a young boy or a male of any age.

This is one of the new magnolia releases called Tilda catching stars, coloured in copics and polychromo's. The papers are the wonderful My Minds Eye Miss Caroline - Howdy Doody. Stardust Stickles have been used on the crown, stars and wand. Kaisercraft blush pearls, finish this card off beautifully.

Jeanette
Jeanette has created this sweet little scene using images and a die from CC Designs. She used Swiss Pixie Lucy, Woodland mushroom and the mushroom border die. The ribbon is May Arts Silk in Pink. She added Stickles in Crystal to the wings.

Don't forget about our Monthly Challenge: Paper-Piecing
