    Hi all, my poor feet are struggling today after all the walking at the NEC yesterday. I too had a great time at the Hobbycrafts show and meeting everyone (that was the best bit ;)). It was a lovely day and I came home happy and with a few bags crammed with stash :D

    melissa, I've placed a small order with craftwork cards today for a few more cheapie door hangers, couple more £1.25 chipboard albums and a couple of sale bits. I love their stuff. Need some time to make some things and also want a go with the Lily of the Valley bits I bought as need to make a few children's cards for the next couple of weeks.

    saveapenny - fantastic news on your nappy cake orders :T See the empire has started to grow, knew it would ;)

    polly, I'll have a go at the green theme card challenge if I get the chance. It's Jack's birthday party on Saturday (and I'm out 2 nights this week) so bit pushed for time but love the idea of a colour theme so I'll try and give it a go, thanks for mentioning on here :D
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:

    It's got loads of colours in the pdf download file.
    2016 is the year I am going to find time for me, and cherish the time I spend with my friends and family.
    It is also time to save - Aim £4,000 - So far this year - £230/£4,000
