Make it Monday

It's time for our weekly OPEN paper challenge at Make it Monday!  And this week I am OVER THE MOON to welcome back Saturated Canary as our sponsor!!!!  I love love love LOOOOVE these images! 


I fell madly in love with this little girl, Murray, and thought she'd be perfect for an Easter card!




And I'm so sorry but I don't have a POTW this week...not because there weren't a million gorgeous creations because there were...but because we had FOUR snow days and there was no time!  Lol!  Between sledding, shoveling, sledding, shoveling, reading 450 books, coloring in 50 different coloring books and playing 493 games of checkers, there was barely enough time to survive!  ;D

I promise I will have one next week...unless another blizzard hits us!  Eek!  ;D

Happy Monday!

Saturated Canary: good vs evil (what could be "gooder" than a sweet chick protector?!?  Lol!)
 Totally Gorjuss: anything goes with pink!

Make it Monday!

Are you going to create this week?  Of course you are! 
Are you going to use paper in your creation?  Yup!  (Or "duh" as my five year old would say...sometimes I'm convinced that's the only thing she's learned in kindergarten!) 
Would you like to win a prize from a great sponsor?  Yes?  Then join us this week at Make it Monday!  We're always an open paper challenge with a great sponsor and this week is no exception...this week our sponsor is the oh-so-fun Dr. Digi's! 

Here is my creation, using a little-too-much sun Hole in one Hal:





Seriously, get that guy an umbrella! 

Now for my P(s)OTW!

From Faye, this amazing spring box card...it just blows my mind!



And from Andrea, a card just perfect for owl lovers:

 
Absolutely fabulous!!!
