    Rusty - thanks so much for my anya images. They're so fab - I love them all. I think my favourite is the spaceman. They should keep me going for ages. You are clever figuring out how to print them off - a brilliant idea 'cos then you don't have to worry about the ink running.
    Ct19720 - how annoying having your card cloned again - I hope it all gets sorted soon! Beautiful challenge card - I love the embossing and the colours are so pretty!
    ZLS1984 - hope you have fun flocking!!
    Dragonflew - beautiful fairy card - I love the glittery wings. Did you have fun embossing it??
    Dawnteabag - great scrapbook page - the papers look perfect with the picture!

    Two more cards added to my blog - http://ct19720.blogspot.com/

    Finally had time to print out the male cards I was trying to do a few weeks ago, based on 1939 and 1959. I love the way they have come out and hope they are well received.
    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

    Will have a few more for you to post on Monday, I have just *done* the fisherman and the animals ones ;) have also found some character ones aswell but need to modify them ;) when I have them sorted I will print and post for you :) glad they arrived safely ;)

    Our printer runs on a continuous ink supply so luckily ink is really really cheap and literally last forever, we have had the same ink in the printer for the last 6-8 months and are still over half full ;)

    CT, dragonllew and dawnteabag - fab cards and layout; have left comments on blogs.
    Zoe and minimacka - good to see you back, hope to see some cards soon ;)
    Saveapenny - we'll have to arrange a day after my exams end (last one on the 22nd). I guess a weekday would be easier and less busy?
    Rusty and Melissa - parcels are on their way ;)
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Hello - Sorry I've been out of the loop for about a week now and not even managed to thank you all for your valuable posts which I have read and I will thank later. I'm hoping like mad I have a really quiet weekend to catch up on card making, MSE posting & sleeping (not necessarily in that order)! Can I get away with saying all your cards & blogs are fantastic and start afresh from here?

    Saveapenny - just sorry card was a bit late!

    Flourgirl - Hope Hubby passed the medical - know what you mean about costs - last time my OH went cost similar & apparently the doc ranted on about the government for most of the time!!! (nice work if you can get it eh?)

    CT1972 - sorry to hear of your cc problems, it's such a hassle & inconvenience to sort them isn't it?

    Jailhousebabe - thanks dearie!
    Rusty - You are spoiling me!! I love the fisherman and animals ones - I was going to buy them so you are saving me some pennies. I sent you some images of the fairy chloe one that you haven't got and a few other bits. I posted them this morning so you might get them tomorrow! My printer is useless - I only had it a week and it ran out of coloured ink - I hardly printed anything off either.

    Thankyou JHB :)

    Marg nice to see you back ;) can't wait to see some more cards :)

    Right ladies, OH has set up part of my website to store the stamped images, so if you want them rather than me emailing all of the time then get in touch and I will send you the link. To make things easier I have used the same password as the password for saveapennys papers ;)
    If you want the web address (which isn't my website its slightly different) then send me a PM and I will send details across!
    :)

    Thankyou ever so much, can't wait to have more stuff to play with, although I think I will be so spoilt for choice that I will just have to keep crafting just to get to use all the ones I want :D:D I will sort them out this weekend (inbetween working twice :eek:) and hopefully get them in the post
