Stampin' for the Weekend - Challenge DT Card

Hi Guys..well its time for another SFTW challenge and this time its a real corker...

Getting to know you - Based on Favourite Book

I have to say that this did give me a little bother as there are so many..but then I thought about when I was little..and then of course it came to me... I just loved the Milly Molly Mandy stories....by Joyce Lankester Brisley...in fact my sister got me a an old box set for my 'big' birthday a couple of years ago. Now I just loved reading about her adventures and in the front of the books was a little map of the village where Milly Molly Mandy lived showing the little thatched houses where her freinds lived and I used to wish I lived there too!!!...ahhhhh!!...and then I grew up and discovered boys!!!.lol..anyway..this is my card..



It had to be Tilda...and this was the nearest I could get to a red striped dress that Milly Molly Mandy wore in the summer...lol..
we have a fab sponsor this time...
Michelle Perkett.

Michelle is offering a set of 12 of her greeting cards and one digi image, of the winner's choice, from her store

So I do hope you will join us this week..look forward to seeing your favortite books!!..lol
Hugs
Jan...x

  2. This is adorable Jan - lots of pretty detail and I love your story about Milly Molly Mandy - when I was little my favourite books were the Magic Faraway Tree ones - wonder if I've still got them somewhere?
