Make it Monday #115 with Bugaboo Stamps

For My Team

Hi there wonderful people! So nice to see you here again.

Today I am sharing my card for this week's 


I have used a lovely image from our sponsor this week called Flower Jar and have dedicated my card to my wonderful Design Team over at Make It Monday.

I know I may be bias but I really do think I have the best, sweetest and most talented  group of ladies on the team and I consider each one of them my friends.

So Ladies, this one's for you!


Not only do these lovely ladies come through with the goods each and every time but they are also great team  players.

If one of the team are down for what ever reason, they are all straight in there ready to cover their commenting numbers or just to lend a sympathetic ear. 

This is what I love most about blogging, if it weren't for this weekly linky party I would never have "met" these truly beautiful women.

Please visit them today and give them a little blog love and tell them just how much you love the inspiration they give you each week. 



Ok enough of the mushy stuff, lol!!

On with the show!

Make It Monday #114 with Dr Digi's House Of Stamps

Hi, welcome back to my little spot in cyberspace.

Have you had a good week? I hope so.

We are at the beginning of our tropical wet season here and the weather is certainly warming up with temps in the low 30s and the humidity rising.

Not all bad as it does mean that I get to retreat in to my craftroom in the middle of the day when it is just too hot to be outside on the weekends.

I whipped up a quick card for this week's


using a fabulously fun image from our awesome new sponsor.


I chose Anglin' Andy for my card.

You will find an outstanding selection of fun and quirky images over at

The first one is from



Cathy has cleverly used a scrapbook page layout to create this stunning card. Lots of photos on her blog to show it in all it's gorgeous detail.

My second choice this week was this one from
