Make it Monday sponsored by Craft Emma's Store!

Happy Monday everyone, I hope you had a good one!  It's Monday so it's time for a new Make It Monday linky party and we want to be inspired by your creativity!  For my make this week, I used a new fave by Saturated Canary digi set called Camping Sleep Over...

 
 

I kept it all pretty simple, using lots of distressing and ripping to create interest and chalk to create the shadows under the images that are stuck on with foam pads, which you can see better in this piccie here...



The sentiments are from My Favorite Things and the cardstock is Core'dinations whitewash - love this stuff!

This week we are sponsored by the lovely Emma over at Crafty Emma's Store and this week the prize is a £10 voucher to spend in her yummy store!


So onto my pick of last week's entrants - I have chosen this sweet fresh make by Wendy of Flowergirl Cards...


Created by Wendy of Flowergirl Cards
I love that Penny Black stamp and how Wendy has added the gems in the tree and the subtle distressing - just beautiful!  Thank you for sharing with us Wendy!


I am entering my card into the following challenges:

    I thought the shadows were real until you pointed them out, that is how good you are, or at least how good I believe you to be!
