Make It Monday #43

Hello to you and welcome to another week here at Make It Monday.

To those of you who have just recently joined us (it's great to have you here) I hope that you enjoy the linky party this week and please pop on over the the Design Teams blogs and say hi, we would love to come visit you too.

Speaking of coming by to visit you, some of the lovely people who leave comments for us here on the Challenge blog come up as noreply-comment@blogger. This means that as much as we would like to,we can't reply to your comment. If you would like to change your status but don't know how, try going to your dashboard (for blogger)and click on edit profile and select "show my email address".

It was another amazing week last week, so many truly fabulous entries. It is a pretty tough job for the Design Team to pick their favourites each week let me tell you!

But right now, lets check out this week's featured blogger

Sandy from Sandy's Creations

with this lovely vintage style card

Such a gorgeous image, so feminine and I'm just loving that punched border. One can never have too many punches............right?

Sandy has been making cards for quite a while now but is still relatively new to blogging. She has a wonderful style which favours the vintage look (that she does so well).

I hope you will all take a wander over to Sandy's blog and say hi and show her just how friendly the Make It Monday community is. I know she will be so happy to have you drop by.

Now, lets see who is this week's winning commentor

Congratulations to.........

Dawn who left a lovely comment for Ms Petersen

Dawn, please email me at mgissel70@yahoo.com.au so that I can arrange for you to receive your prize.

Thank you for getting in to the spirit of MIM.

As there are just so many fabulous entries each week the Design Team and I have decided that we would like to feature our favourite entry from last week on our own blogs.

Edited to add

The blinkie is not working properly at the moment, seems to be a problem with the code. If any of you lovely people are able to help I would appreciate it very much

Make It Monday #40

Hi

Happy Monday to you !!

I know, typically there isn't much to cheer about on a Monday morning but hey, I've really come to look forward to Mondays now that all you wonderful crafters are sharing your beautiful creations here on Make It Monday.

Welcome to those of you who have just recently joined us here, I hope you enjoy the bounty of inspiration that is shared here each week.

I'm thrilled to see so many of you getting in to the spirit of MIM too and sharing some blog love around.

Only problem I'm having is that my wish list of "must haves" is growing like you wouldn't believe. Each time I visit the creations linked up I find more images, dies etc that I just can't possibly do without, lol.

Now, lets have a look at this week's featured blogger

Amelia from Stamped For The Occassion

with this sweet card

This is exactly the reason why I love Make It Monday so much, isn't this card just so beautiful with all its fabulous detail.

Each week new people are linkng up and I love checking out their past creations as I browse through their blogs. I have not come across Amelia's blog before and I am so glad she joined us last week as I have thoroughly enjoyed viewing all her gorgeous makes. Each and every post on her incredible blog had me gob smacked!! I was truely in awe of her incredibly talent to make such stunning cards.

Thanks for sharing with us Amelia.
