    jailhousebabe that card is gorgeous for 6p!! well done. sorry to hear about your missing order, isn't it annoying when things go awol in the post :(
    saveapenny have just been looking at your photobucket, all your cards are so fab I can't even choose a fave. The brown papers with the coloured flowers on are just lovely, I may have to get myself some!

    What great cards everyone.

    Jailhousebabe your credit crunch card is lovely and made for just 6p that is great.:T

    Gangstabird - love your christing card, it is so simple but really effective.:T

    Rainmac - wow you cards are beautiful, as to are yours saveapenny.:T

    Dragonllew - Great card for the creative crew challenge - it is really different and looks really fab :T

    Mumhug - fab card for the creative crew challenge the colours and textures work so well together, so well done. :T

    Ive made a couple more easter cards tonight using the chick from pink petticoat

    DSCF1720.jpgDSCF1721.jpg

    and here is my credit crunch card for the challenge - total cost to make is 25 1/2p - reduced price flowers 15p for 3, brad 1/2p, card 6p (3p for each colour used), peel off 4p, ribbon - free taken from a gift I have previously unwrapped.

    The picture doesn't do the colours justice, as the dark card is actually a deep purple, but looks brown on the photo.

    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
