Gosh you have all been busy bees! Such wonderfull cards!
Saveapenny, I adore all the materials you use, what paper is the brown swirly one with blue butterflies?

I didn't make any cards this weekend as I was making a Pride & Prejudice style dress. I brought the material and pattern over 3years ago but only just got round to making it!! I'm really proud of it, it's just plain lilac silk at the moment but will add some piping and frills etc next weekend.

I will have to get going with my challenge card tonight.

Good luck with your class Flourgirl. Those links are brilliant, I will def have a go, what type of thread do you use?

Just back from my cardmaking session think I need an extra strong black coffee and 2 valium.:eek: Only 10 wanted to do it they all wanted to do different and do there own thing, still they enjoyed themselves and we all had a laugh. Glad I took double sided tape and not glue or pritt stick:rotfl: OMG. They have asked me to do it again later in the year. :eek: Sold 7 of my cards too.:D

crazychatter I use ordinary DMC or Anchor embroidery thread just 1 strand, or Madeira metallic that comes on a bobbin.

Lol, Well done Flourgirl!! I'm sure you really perked things up for them

Sorry a really dumb question, but how do you add verses on the inside of your cards? Do you print the card before decorating it? How do you use the insert sheets I've seen on photobucket?
