    yeah - just draw them free hand - they're just dashed lines I do mine with a pencil first to make sure I'm happy with the overall shape. Then go over with a sparkly pen to give it a little bit of pizazz.

    Npsmama - I agree this thread is full of fantastic people.

    Hi Rainmac - beautiful cards, can I just ask how you make your rounded corners, is it just a corner punch - they look very effective.

    Thanks
