Make It Monday sponsored by Meljen Designs!

It's time for a new linky party over at Make It Monday and today we are being sponsored by the wonderful and whimsical Meljen's Designs!  For my make this week, I used Window Kitty...




I loved making this card but it made me feel sad too!!  Bless, someone let that cat in!!!  And what do you think of my clean and simple card?  I just wanted to add some buttons or ribbon but I kept to the less is more and just gave the image and sentiment some depth with foam pads instead.  And I love my wall stamp but I can't remember what the make it - so annoying when that happens!

Anyhoo, I hope to see you share more of your inspiring makes with us again this week!  Meljen Designs Digital Stamps are giving away the lovely prize of the winner's choice of 4 single digis!

I didn't have time to choose a pick of the week as I've been away for the weekend so I'll make it up for next week by choosing two then!

See you later with my Pollycrafts Monday DT card!




I am entering my card into the following challenges:

    Hello Mary
    Your card is just wonderful, the poor Kitty, although you cannot see the face, you know in your heart that it is sad, and no-way are you going to be able to resist letting her/him in. And I am very impressed with your CAS card, I can so relate with you re the wanting to add embellishments.....The wall Bg makes this card a Wow.
    Smiles:)
