Rusty - beautiful cards and toppers, the lemon flowers look so pretty.
S_michaels - great idea about the tattoos, that design looks fab.
Saint_Chris - a lovely selection of cards. You have persuaded me that I have to buy those dandelion decoupage sheets, the cards are so pretty. Love the forever friends ones too.
Saveapenny - best wishes for your OH.

Saint chris, I adore thsoe cards, the dog is goregous, they look really professional.
Rainmac, i can't believe you made those flower embellishments, they look fab!!
CT- that sounds like a brilliant card, I'm looking forward to seeing it!
I'll be thinking good thoughts for your OH Saveapenny..

I want to go to these craft shows, I'm so jealous of those in London or Birmingham. All I habve to look forward to is the craft demonstration in my local Range! lol!

I didn't print out a colour copy of the iris pig and completely forgot what I was supposed to do when I got home (i only have internet at work) but I'm quite happy with how it turned out, I know it isn't really an iris card, more a collage but I like it. I hope my friend does.

I finally got round to taking some pics last night and just made a photobucket profile so I can show you what i've been doing. there are also pics of the regency style dress I made at the weekend, it's just plain at the moment though, needs some embellishments.

Afternoon ladies :wave: im sorry i havent been on here for ages, life seems so hectic and i havent had time to make anything, i did take a piccy of my card for this week but as yet i havent had time to upload it to photobucket

I just wanted to say wow to all your cards :j :T and im very jelous that I dont have enough time to make any at the mo. Once the light nights comes im hoping that I can stay awake a bit longer than 9 oclock (I get up at 5.30am) and get into my conservatory where its lovely and bright and start my cardmaking and scrapbooking again.

Mumhug - your book card is lovely just a suggestion to all the others but could you not put a picture of your family into one of the flaps? or if you have small children maybe get them to draw a piccy and fold it into a flap.

saveapenny - what is the QVC outlet shop, is it a real shop? If so, where is it, think I need to go...

crazychatter - I love your pig card, far better than the iris folded example one, your friend will think it's fab :T
