Making cards - Ideas (part 5)

I'm very "green" when it comes to blogging but would really like add buttons and links because folk are so generous with ideas.
I would be grateful for tips on how to add them to to my very basic blog.thanks :T:)

Todays card involved painting (like card making not one of my strong points!!) however as it's a valentines day card it's undeniably made with lots of love I utilised the idea of one of the many gorgeous cards on http://nightowlpapergoods.com/product.php?productid=702&cat=283&page=1

Have a lovely day all, I'm off down the allotment in the hope it doesn't rain xx

PONR - they've just redesigned the site so I'm assuming they forgot to put the details on, from memory its £1.95 if you spend under £10, over £10 spend its £2.95, I'm not sure if it changes if you spend over £20.

Georgiegirl2012 - fab lego card - my son would love it!

LauraD - great card - love the red against the kraft card.

Betterlife - your cake is gorgeous - love the quilted effect and the butterflies are so pretty. There's 18 months difference between my oldest two - about the same as there will be between Elliot and my girl and I remember how hard it was with them so I'm worrying a bit. I don't know how you find the time to get everything done!

melissa, your be fine, im sure, the older ones will want to help by passing you nappies when doing changes etc, i always find the youngest seems to grow up slightly and become a bit more independant when a new baby comes along. its hard because you need to get that happy medium between not leaving them out completely but also showing them that the baby needs mummys attention aswell. ive always bought a little present for mine for the birth day so the new baby can give there siblings presents. another thing which has probably helped me is ive had all mine at home, so ive not been gone for a day or so. im so sure you will be fine though , and you have a girl to look forward too, all those pink and frill dresses after having boys, you will love it

georgiegirl could you please email your card to me,as my comp wont let me open your blog it just keeps closing down for some reason? thanks xx

Popping on for a catch up as hubby doing uni work, ds1 isn't very well so he is just chilling on the sofa and ds2 is having a nap so i feel a bit lost.

Just like many of my things, I have lost my wedding ring:eek: and my glasses. I really need my glasses, it' driving me insane i can't find them. I only where them for diving, readfing and when i am the comp but my eyes are getting strained and i am getting headaches. I haven't had them since new year!

As for my ring it is grooved and i take it off if baking or creaming the boys up every night for their bad skin because i don't want stuff to get in it. It's been gone a week now and i haven't a cue where it is. Hubby being very good about it. Got to stop looking at it will turn up.

Love your cake betterlife it's so cute.

Iv'e got to go and look though my stash, a couple of kids in school want to send valentines cards and have asked me for anything i can give them. I am going to print off those free papers for them thanks who ever posted the link.
