    Thanks rainmac - i'll post the receipe up on my blog tomorrow - they are very easy to make.

    Now I have a blog - how do I submit the card in to the CCC site if I was going to?

    You put your details into mr linky on their blog here
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Good Morning Everyone

    Hope everyone is well and looking forward to the long weekend?

    I'm loving all the cards that have been posted recently, they're all beautiful!

    My friend rang me last night to say she'd passed her driving test, so I did this card for her, what do you think?

    sally - lovely card :T

    Had a go at one for baby grandsons birthday (not till June but made one mess up already !!)
    Used some free fabric I got, natural colour with 3 navy stripes on it, stuck that on the card then randomly placed some teddy images I'd got (stuck them on card first so I could give them the 3D effect) -quite pleased with it -took nearly all morning so it ought to be ok.................lol

    I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

    not as good as some of yours but I was determined to make a watering can and this is my 3rd attempt!

    and this card is a colleagues leaving card http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z134/colourcue/my%20creations/CopyofP1010055.jpg

    and this is a friends birthday card http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z134/colourcue/my%20creations/CopyofP1010059.jpg
    I seem to be having a purple day!

    Really lovely cards she grinch - I love the garden themed one, and the purple ones too, as it is my favourite colour.

    How have you done the pretty edges around the card you have used, are they by using paper edger scissors?
