Hi Everyone,

I wondered if I could have some opinions on this card. Its for mothers day but I think its missing something but don't know what. Any suggestions welcome:D



Thank you
PS the ribbon isn't stuck down yet so I can change that no problem, except its the only pink and white ribbon I have

thats beautiful , I'm sure your Mum will love it

Hi everyone,
just posting some new cards i've made went to a craft day at the range and she showed us how to make a waterfall card so this is my first attempt at one. also bought the goody bag with the dandelion and daisy stuff in. what a bargain their is loads of stuff in it for £14.99 its well worth the money, it adds up to over £30s worth of stuff.

Hi everyone, I'm very jealous of everyone meeting each other, maybe next year I'll venture along.

There are some lovely cards! CT-I know what you mean about liking other people's simple, elegant cards but not being able to make them myself, but I do like your green mother one.

Saveapenny, I adore the papers you sent me, you are such a lovely lady! I had great fun making quite a few cards with them this weekend! congrats on your nappy cake sales!

I won't be able to lurk on here so often now, I'm changing jobs slightly so will be much more busy. But I'll try to pop on as much as I can to say hi and admire all the lovely work!

Debsy - I've ordered from them before, my items were well packaged and they took about 5 days to arrive. Great cards - you've reminded me to get my dandelion decoupage pack out and have a play 'cos yours looks so cute.
Crazychatter - good luck with your new job!!!
Skiergirl - lovely card, I love the pink tones.
Well I'm pleased - at the last hour I've managed to enter a card on Polly's new challenge blog. I've only just done it, and the deadline's up at 5 - so it was in the nick of time. I hate photobucket so here's a link to my blog so that you can have a look:

(I just wish I'd coloured her shorts in pink - it would've looked so much better).

Debsy - lovely cards :j . I've sent my DH to the range today as there was a demo on sat so they should have the bags in too

Melissa - thats a lovely card :j

Thanks for the comments on my card, I'll leave it as it is :T . Its still only card number 2, so I'm still working out how much is 'too much' on a card
