Meljen designs and Make it Monday.






Hello Everyone...no chivalry is not dead in our small town, and no!, I didn't get a phone number, it all happened too quick...lol..but I will never forget it..and besides I think he was a bit young for me...but I did feel special....for a day...[you can read about it HERE  if you not sure what I'm talking about]
 
Now, where were we...oh! yes...a new week is about to get under way, and so that means another....
 
                                                     MAKE IT MONDAY 
 
is about to start....and what a wonderful week again last week, so many gorgeous creations to looks at, and congratulations to the winners.....
 
For my card this week, I went for a baby card, as spring is in the air, and babies are popping up all over the  place..a new great niece the other day..9lb4oz...bonny little girl.
 


So this is the card I sent , using a meljen designs image called BABY SHOWER 



Close up of image, coloured with pencils and paper pieced brolly and nappy.



The side view, decorated inside and the papers were' Tatty Teddy' and the small panels on the front were scraps of 'Forever Friends'...and an organza ribbon.

For my pick this week I chose this project from Cheryl #230  a fabulous fun calander page..



Cheryl also has a video tutorial on how she did this on her blog, a lot of fun to watch.Thanks Cheryl..


Our sponsor this week is the fabulous MELJEN'S DESIGNS 


So there we are, all done, and looking forward to another week of wonderful projects.

Hope you all have a fabulous new week and I'll see you on Wednesday..

Luv CHRISSYxx

At first I thought hey, this woman has been hanging with her clients too long thinking it's spring. Then I realized I should be your client since you're in the southern hemisphere:)
Great card and just as cute as a button.
