    CT..your cards are always lovely and are certainly good enough to sell
    I always print full verse inserts except for kids cards then I just find a really funky font for happy birthday
    If you need any inserts let me know and I will send you some files

    I will look in Dunhelm thanks for the tip, I would never have thoguth to look in there

    Rainmac ...Luckily I had already had a card making session before she aske for the box but now I want to put more Mother Day cards in but Im struggling to think of ideas, I also want to put more mens cards but without doign more flippin men ones ideas have also left me for those too

    Ive uploaded my new batch of cards ..ther are too may to put all of them up so here are just a couple the rest are on http://s333.photobucket.com/albums/m373/SaveaPenny/cards/ the first19 or 20 are the new ones Ive made about 40 but alot are duplicates

    Shes also goin gto try and sell my nappy cakes as well so fingers crossed I get some orders for those I will be so chuffed if I do

    Here are a couple

    My favourite one

    saveapenny all your cards are beautiful and all so different, I like the melon one, I thought it was very quirky, the baby cot as if it was in a room was so clever but the 60th anniverary book card was just fabulous and I think my favourite. I loved the verse in it too.
    Wishing you good luck with the selling.

    Flourgirl, wishing you well with the cardmaking class. Hope you enjoy as much as they will.

    Saveapenny - good luck with the nappy cakes. Have you got any pics so that we can have a look? Great mother's day cards, the melon one is fab - really original, great for Mums that aren't into flowers. I love how you've used the ribbon on the rose card too! I'll check out your other pics now. I was tempted by the granola and ambrosia bits on the docrafts sale as I love those ranges, buti'd have to find the paper cheap to do with them.
    Flourgirl - good luck with your class - I'll bet they'll love it. Do you have to provide all of the materials?

    Flourgirl - lovely cards. Your men ones are fab, I always struggle making them. I love the stitched ones they look like they must take you ages! I might try and dig my stitching stencils out now that I've seen the effects you get with yours.
