Fantastic cards everyone :T

I'm going to try a bit of stamping later, haven't done stamping for years cos I was soooo bad at it but want to give it another go as there are such beautiful images around. Will report back with how I get on...

Gemm, thank you sooooo much for the recipe - I was almost drooling looking at the pictire of your fudge.

Melissa - that is so funny about the newspaper, did you notice the picture or did someone else point it out? How are you feeling now? Much better I hope! My son's school hasn't gone in for anything for Easter but the religious story which is fine but Easter hats and bunnies and eggs are lovely and fun for kiddies too. DS1 bought me home a card that he'd made (coloured an image on the front) that said 'Jesus Died For Me'. At his age (just 5) I think that is a bit much. The school isn't a CofE school or anything. We've got parents' evening tonight so I may be bringing it up...

Rainmac I think thats a bit OTT for a 5 year old surely it should have been easter bunnies

Just had a call from the crusie company ...we didnt get the maiden cruise on the QE , it sold out to past passengers yesterday before it went on general sale Oh well it was expensive anyway for ports we had already been too
I just like spending hubbies money

My stuff still hasnt come from craft carrot, Ive got a feeling its not going to either. I thought sonething wasnt right hen I didnt get an email confirming the order. But I did get a paypal receipt
I tried calling but the phones dead, Luckily I only spent £11 I will give it a few more days them open a dispute on paypal if its not arrived

Hello - sorry to ask but can someone please give me an idiot's guide to getting a blog as I haven't got a clue? I've got nothing to put in it yet but want to follow all yours & I think that's the only way.
Got to nip out for the afternoon - so will give a proper post later when I've read all yours.
Thank you Marg

kitekat I had a look at that site a bit back and wondered if there was a catch so didn't bother to sign up. Have you done it and is it worth it?

Fabulous cards all of you.

Rusty - love the gardening one...........now why didn't I think of something like that for foster daughter to go with her garden hamper

Finished off my Easter cards (except for baby grandson - do that over the weekend)
They're nothing special, just images of chocolate eggs I cut out from last years sunday supplement and I cut out some egg cups from leather fabric samples I'd got.
