Glad to hear everything is ok with Harry and Mum. Hope Dad is ok too as its been a stressful time for all

I bet the flat looks great for when they arrive home - you are kind to do that for the family.

bunbun2 - Ive just checked and the three little piggies card is still there its on 217 or 218.

I`m after some more of the animal two step dies - there is an adorable monkey which I need!!!!!

Hubby said far too many crafty items are being bought... oops! In my defence I do make all the cards and handmade goodies for gifts so we never have to buy shop cards!

Saveapenny - great news that mum and Harry are doing well.
Dragonflew - hope your daughter feels better soon!
Princesspoppypop - sounds like you've got some great ideas for xmas cards -you can never start too early!!
Quiksave - I love your card. I am absolutely useless at drawing, so I really admire anyone that can do it. I bet your OH loved it - such a personal, original card.
Bunbun2 - I probably have got them then - its been ages since I looked through my magazines - I very rarely buy any.
CT19720 - a really clever idea, I love how you've used the hanging picture frame - I think I might have to steal that idea!!!
Kim_Possible - great card, I really like the bath image, and the colours are really pretty.
Gemm - congrats on your win!!

Jailhousebabe - congrats on your win too. Was it the new range of laura ashley stuff that you won?
CT19720 - great cards - I really like the effects that you get using wordle!!
Rainmac - lovely card. I really like the way that you've used the scalloped frame - mine are still in the pack. The torn paper looks really effective too!
Flourgirl - I'm originally from that area of the country (sort of). I remember going to Rutland Water when I was little - it was massive. Hope you have a fab time
Pinkladymel - The inside of your card looks fabulous too. You really have a natural talent for creating things. I have never tried decorating the inside of mine - I've always just bunged an insert in or left it blank. Trouble is I think if I made something like that, that took me so long to make I don't think I'd want to give it away.

kimpossible I love your bath card it is a completley differant take on the challenge.
ct Your dolphin card is brilliant I like the idea of a picture frame and your phootgraphy is also very good.
quicksave Your cartoon card is really good if i could draw like that all my cards would have some kind of cartoon on.

Hi, This card is on the theme of water, but it's not for the challenge - its just for amusement value! I found this card that I made card about 15 years ago when I was going out with my boyfriend (now my hubby):

I obviously didn't think much of my appearance, look at the way I saw myself! :eek::D

Don't get to do much cartooning these days - but would love to design my own range of rubber stamps!

What a fantastic card
