Sorry 4got to say Marg love the card,

Saveapeny what would I do with out you, the first link is perfect. Just have to think of the design of them now. I was going to put small pictures on like hands and batteries and put little words to go with them like, An extra pair of hands when you need them. But I am not too sure now so will have to have a think, my dad thinks the card itself says enough.

Do they work ok in the cuttlebug? I'd looked at them but after all the faffing about it's taken me to get sizzlets working in my bug I decided not to.

Is it the usual A plus 2 B plates?

Hi Paddington ,
Yes i just used the normal plates to cut with and they worked out fine. I have loads of cuttlekids dies and alphabets too and they work really well in it . I got the cuttlekids dies on ebay 12 packs including 2 alphabets and a number set for around £30 including postage. the alphabets alone cost £13 each here.

Marg - really pretty cards, I love the sparkly red heart that you've used.
ZLS- a really sophisticated card, it looks like leather in the picture. I love how you've layered everything.

ZLS1984 - beautiful card :T

Marg - 2 lovely cards, well done, hope you didn't get caught by your OH whilst taking the pics

CT19720 - don't you just love kids :rolleyes:. We all thought your card was brilliant . I am always in two minds about whether to make cards for children. I tend to make for my friends' children and buy the rest. My DS1 has 6 parties to go to in the next 6 weekends and I am buying cards for all of them. For girl cards I bought a box of 30 notelets in Home Sense, they are great quality and have lovely cute pictures on them and work out at 30p per card.
