Hey everyone, I am sort of back around now I just can not keep away. Not done any more cards yet but hoping to get back with it soon.

Family prob sort of sorted out but much better than it was.

Welcome back Zoey :T

I haven't made my male card yet but think I sort of know what I'm going to do. Have made OH a valentine card called a 'peek a boo box' today but not quite finished and can't take any pics as OH has the camera in Dubai :rolleyes: Will post a pic when he's back

Well done Polly for winning the challenge :T

Has everyone else got the lovely sunshine? I was dreading this week without OH but the sun has made me feel better about everything :j Already done 3 days without him and managed fine, got me wondering what he actually does round here

Glad things are a bit better Rainmac ....

rainmac - glad your mum likes the cards - knew she'd have a weep......tell her 'sorry about that'.
We haven't got the lovely sunshine - you must have it all- its grim and grey.........yuk !

polly - sorry your not feeling so well. I've got conjunctivitus (hope I spelt it right......lol) Can manage to make a few cards as long as they're not too fiddly - trying to get enough done so I can make up a box of mixed ones for MIL

ZL - glad things are getting sorted out for you.

mary hope your conjunctivitis clears up soon - that is so painful

rainmac pleased your mum like the cards. glad you have got some sunshine not much here:D

I haven't made my male card yet - maybe tomorrow!

made this ( secret heart ) it opens up so you can write a message inside

this is the inside i've cut the bits of card off that closed it because it was a bit fragile and punched some holes in to put the ribbon through, although two holes would have been better but i punched it in the wrong place so ended up with four

debsy - that's really pretty. I'll bet OH doesn't even notice the extra holes, I wouldn't have if you hadn't mentioned it.
