Hello Everyone.....

Another weekend bites the dust and we have had a mixture of Seasons, but, typical for Spring...

Managed to get a bit of gardening done, planted some bizzy lizzies and dug out an enormous clump of bulbs with a delicate assortment of weeds and nasty things..and made a coule of cards, so fairly productive weekend.....

But down to business today....and it is MAKE IT MONDAY  time....and I have a lovely young couple to share with you this week..



This is CHARLES AND MIA  from DIGI MY WORLD....aren't they cute.

Coloured with Faber Castell pencils and the papers MME - 'Lost and Found'..



And...I made an easel card....been ages since I have made one of these...

The gorgeous heart to hold the card in shape is a wodden heart frame I found, very light though..I even left the vintage photo inside of it...



Gorgeous flowers from WOC.....and a few from my stash...



A side view.....


And of course our sponsor is DIGI MY WORLD   .............

Thanks to all that played along with us last week, so many fantastic enries, and a very hard decision to pick a favourite, but I did whittle down and was drawn to this fabulous card from #210 - HAZEL 


I thought this was just fantastic...soo pretty, thankyou for sharing with us Hazel....there is also a pink one similar to this,from Hazel, so beautiful.

So there we are, off to a great start to a new week....thanks for stopping by, lets get linking up to MAKE IT MONDAY............

Will be back later, so see you then....

Luv CHRISSYxx

You were so right they are an awesome couple. Love how you chose to color them and oh making it into an easel card. It was very inspiring.

I'm a slacker, I'm sorry. I have admired this card all week and just getting here to tell you. It's terrific and I literally got giddy when I saw the frame!
Beautiful POTW too. Remeinds me of looking into a mirror and seeing another and other. Very pretty!
Have a fun weekend,
