Make It Monday sponsored by Scrapbook Sisters!

A new Make It Monday linky party has opened today!  So a happy Monday to you and here is my DT make to kick off the week...




This little lady is called Step On It and is illustrated by Torico of Birdie Brown fame - she just makes me smile!!  The papers are from The ScrapCake Happiness paper pad (for mine from Dies To Die For). This card is going to a very special friend who has lost a lot of weight recently and I know she'll love this cheeky gal!  I really enjoyed colouring this sweetie's hair and skirt in too - here's a closer look...






What a doll!  Anyway, this week we are being sponsored by the lovely Scrapbook Sisters and the prize is 5 digis from their store!







So for my pick of the week, I have chosen this lovely age card by Julie of Rainbow Days...

Created by by Julie of Rainbow Days



I just love the way Julie used the shades of pink and red together, along with the embossing and doodling - beautifully put together!  Thanks for sharing with us Julie!



Right, I'm off!  Thanks for visiting me and hope your week starts off well!






I am entering my card into the following challenges:

  27. Really made me smile too, fabulous image and love the papers, I have a few dew drops I could do with getting rid of, along with a lot of gems, loads of papers and on and on and on.
    Have a good week Mary, I am searching for an image of a male with roller skates, preferably comical, tried Bugaboo and a few other but nothing, any idea's off the top of your head.
