    Wow Saveapenny I love that very elegant. I have tried printing on Velum but the ink comes off. I did this with my images of Jesus for my easter cards and had to buy some sticky back plastic to cover them in lol.

  • saveapenny - that's gorgeous! Thanks for setting the challenge, I've started sketching a plan for it already (something I never do!). That actually sounds odd, doesn't it? You've given us the sketch, but I'm thinking I might try to draw my own image on the front and handwrite the text.
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)
  • Sorry to sound so thick but could someone explain the sketch challenge for me in idiots terms please as I really don't understand it... not sure if it is just because I am tired but I just don't get it :(

    Sorry guys!

    Beautiful cards, my thanks button is playing up but will pop back tomorrow and have a flick through again :)

    What a fantastic gadget - haven't quite got the hang of lining the eyelets up yet but its soooooo easy to use and no effort at all to squash those eyelets - very satisfying :rotfl:

    this is the card I made based on the sketch card that was posted to show what one was
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Hello everyone. Internet back up and running properly now (pray for me lol).
    I've missed so much and I've missed talking to you all too. I'll have to go back and look at all the pics, I'm playing catch up.

    I ordered a pink crop a dile last week, I soooo love it:j , I've wanted one for a long time. I can't say what I'm using it for as it's a present for a lady on MSE but when she recieves it I'd love to show it to you all.

    Hope as always you're all well.

    So if I printed that off then cut it up so I had rough shapes I can then place them anywhere on the card in any way if that makes sense? or does it have to look like that and have to have ribbon on aswell?


    Oh dear I sound really thick ... sorry I might just have to leave this one out again :( I'm not really this thick honest!
