    She grinch what a lovely and different card, :T :T :T it looks like a lot of work went into making it, I would like an apron like that for myself. I love anything gingham it reminds me of the little smocked dresses my mum used to make for me and my sister when we were children (many moons ago:eek: ).

    Melissa fab card/box decorated and embellished beautifully even down to the matching choccies.:T :T :T I love the secret drawer idea. Your talents are endless.

    My packs of BG papers came today including two scoops, so I may be pinching some of your ideas, hope you don't mind;)

    You're mum is going to be bowled over by it. I immediately thought I could try one for my dad's 65th birthday later in the year and add some marbles to the drawer in case he starts to lose his own ;)

    Flourgirl - gorgeous cards, such pretty images and I love the backing papers. Can't wait to see what you create with your basic grey stash.

    Is that a card or an Ice cream Sundae:D

    I know what you mean about not buying stuff. I daren't buy anymore this month I've had 2 orders to glitter pot a visit to hobbycraft and the pink petticoat download :eek: . All necessary of course:D .

    The cake shop where I worked rang this morning and asked me if I could cover for a few days, when I thought of how much I had just spent I said yes. Hopefully there will be a few pennies left over for a trip to the range:rotfl:

    Think it might be a scrapbook page, if I can bring myself to use them:rotfl:

    Well done crafty card creators!!

    sorry I couldn't get to see your gingerbread Shegrinch, as my pc wouldn't show the image for some reason and now I'm missing out!!

    Melissa your box card is stunning!! wow!!

    Flourgirl I really like your icecreama and want to eat it! Pink petticoat do some lovely designs!

    I am not a Dawn Bibby fanbu I have nothing against the woman personally as I don't know anything about her!! I just find her a wee bit annoying and dislike her card making style! Buit we all like different things and she seems v pleasnat and has a huge fan base. My fav qvc presenter is Leonie and the way she says 'lickle' makes me and Molly crack up laughing!!

    Mothering Sundae, very clever!

    Looking forward to finding out how your nappy cake empire develops. Your cake in the photo is stunning so you should do brilliantly ;)
