    Here is another card I made today using the new Fippin Men range I brought
    Front

    and when you open it
    flippinmeninside.jpg
    You know where to find them ;) under Flippin Men

    If you print them off 1/2 size they fit on a normal A5 card then just cut and oval appeture and use either accitate of a poly bag
    If you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel

    Pink-winged - a lovely card, the colours are really pretty! I am tempted to get one of those bow makers, they seem great value.
    Saveapenny - great challenge card, very inventive. Did you get the flippinmen decoupage from jillscrafts? I ordered quite a few of them, but they're at my Mum's so I haven't had a play with them yet!
    Kitekat - thanks for the link, I might have a look.
    HariboJunkie - I envy people living near craft shops, there's not really anything near me. Sometimes its nice to see the products in the flesh rather than buy them on the basis of a picture online.

    I got mine from Imagination, They also sell the large appeture cards to go with them but they werent cheap so once they have gone I will do them 1/2 size and use normal cards
