Marg...I agree your being far to hard on yourself your cards are just fine infact more than fine they are lovely

Rainmac...thank you..do you want some of those ribbon slides I have?

Ganstabird...your card is brillaint I love that font I dont suppose you can send it me, I have Vista but cant find it and think its a great cuhunky font for lettering
I have the blooming monograms from Pink Petticoat but they are a bit blocky (if you knwo what I mean)

Gemma...Ive had a bit of a rush day today with one thing and another but your paper will deffinatly be in the post tomorrow so you should get them Wednesday, Im sorry for the delay

There is a link here. I can't remember how you access it from your pc though, I know it has to be downloaded into fonts, then it appears on your list, find fonts first though, think it's in the windows thingy. Someone else, more competent than me may know how to do this.

Hiya all, I thought I would post my very 1st card for you all to see. I'm not sure about it. What do you all think??

I need help! I love Groovygirls card I'm trying my best to make one for my son's little friend, I've managed to find the image which I've printed off and I've cut it all out as far as the heads, Groovygirl have you printed off the heads again and stuck them on like decoupage? I've no idea how I'm going to cut around Upsydaisy's hair!
Mumhug hope you feel better soon.

Hels - your cards are very cute :T Well done Hels son :T

Today is a better day, the easter card is finished, the MILs card is 'in progress', and I've had another go at the pram embellishment which so far looks ok

To decoupage them I would cut out extra heads and extra legs so it will look like they are walking towards you. I don;t envy you cutting out Upsy Daisy's hair

Love your Easter cards, your son must be crafty, my boys just make mess

mumhug, hope you feel much better soon x
