TIME FOR TEA..


Hello Everyone...

Monday has arrived on a normal week....no holiday to break the week up, so I'm sure the confusion with the days have gone..thank goodness for that..

So Monday means MAKE IT MONDAY  is starting a new linky party and thank you to all who joined in with us for the last fortnight and congratulations to the winners..

This week we are being sponsored by 'TIME FOR TEA DESIGNS'  and the DT were given the cutest images to play with...I selected this little cutie..

'GIRL AND HER BIRDIE'



She is coloured with Faber Castell pencils and her trousers were paper pieced...



Gorgeous papers from a freebie pack out of a magazine and the sentiment and chipboard bird are from the same pack.

Added ribbons and daisies and the MB birdcage...




The side view...and decorated simply inside..

For my POTW I chose this gorgeous layout by #150 Lidya ...



I just loved the Brides dress made with folded doilies and all those pretty butterflies and rolling hills...gorgeous..thanks for sharing with us Lidya [although I called you Clouds in my comment]..

So there we go.. another new week with a great sponsor 'Time for Tea Designs'





Thanks so much for stopping by and thank you also with the congrats and well wishes for my news on my new DT position yesterday...really appreciated it..

See you tomorrow..
