Magnolia-licious February Christmas Blog Hop

Welcome to the February Magnolia-licious blog hop! Each month on the 25th of the month, members of the Magnolia-licious Yahoo group will be holding a blog hop featuring Christmas cards. I missed out last month, but figured I'd jump in this month. If you are a big Magnolia fan, come and check out the Yahoo group.

Must be a special occasion for me, I cut into some of my Wassail Basic Grey paper, don't know why I hoard that stuff, but I really do. I used an inspiration sketch featured in the current issue of the Magnolia Ink magazine on page 14.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Hop on over to Lauren's blog for your next stop. It's a circular hop, so when you get back to where you started, you've seen all the Magnolia Christmas cards for the month. If you like the Magnolias you see along the way, you can find them on the Magnolia-licious website.
