I woudl probably use about 8-10 on the body maybe less...just spread them out and staying clear of the edge but close enough to hold it
Do you buy and use Paper Nation alot?

Thanks saveapenny. I've never made any cards before but fil used to play bowls a lot, so I thought this would be a start, I bought a couple of other sheets at the same time. I didn't realise how long it would take to cut them out:rotfl:

Hi all love your sketch inspired card Rainmac very creative as per usual!!

Melissa I've managed to get online as hubby brought his laptop with him and both houses we've stayed in have wireless internet so makes it real easy!! handy for keeping in touch with people mainly the person cat/house sitting last year we had rabbit babies unexpectedly born whilst away and they all died in the cold v sad and very traumatic for the person looking after them so she was able to email me tho I ended up phoning her as she was quite upset. Needless to say she's not looked after the rabbits since!!! And on a lighter note we had 5 babies then in April and it all went very well and we kept 2 and found homes for 3 and we're now considering having a birthday party for them in April!!!
