    I didn't know it was Leeds, sorry saveapenny, what a fantastic idea with the guitar card.

    minimacka, I kept following from links that saveapenny has put up and came to this, http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/desiree705/EigenGemaakteStempels# and this

    don't know if these are of any use to you. No fairies but little girls and boys.
    I have a few stamps but not what you're looking for or I'd have helped you out. To be honest they're not what I'm looking for either, that's why that pazzles keeps screaming my name louder and louder:rotfl:

    EDIT: sorry ZLS1984 missed your lovely card in my ramblings, I love the quote.

    ZL - super card - I love those old photos............and can't wait to see your cartoon fairies

    Polly - sympathies with the dentist visit - just checked my diary and I'm due to go next Tuesday to have a front one out - then have to have one put on my part-denture.........so for all day Wednesday I shall look like a witch !!:eek:

    rainmac - been through all the ribbons my mate sent...........lovely ones they are, and the paper. It's like some she bought me before and I was running out.
    Miffed after visit to craft shop - they closed at 1pm as its early closing day..........:mad: Nearly breaking my neck to see if she'd got the sort of scrapbook I'm after and couldn't see one...............then OH said we're due more snow tomorrow:mad:

    Oh well, least my hair looks nice............:rotfl:
    Mary

    I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

  • saveapenny - thank you, thank you, thank you! Have sent you a pm x
    zoey - love the card. Did you cut the photo from an old card?
    crazychatter - good luck with the Valentine's card
    minimacka - I'm new to stamping so only have words and a couple of small picture ones (present, clown hat, birthday cake). I'm really rubbish at using them though!
    polly - OW! :(
    soblivion - love the images on those links. I might try to print some off at uni to have a play around with
    mumhug - I know exactly what you mean. None of my friends family are into crafting (although DD has borrowed my bits to make a couple of cards recently)

    Phew! I made 2 cards last night for the challenge (wasn't happy with the first one :rolleyes:), but I have got to eat something! I'll post them later x
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)
