    Thankyou ladies for all of the kind comments :) I showed OH last night when he got home and he loves it :D

    I plan to make a couple of cards today, although not sure what or with what papers! I also dug out a paper bag album, I want to at least put the papers in the album, then I can always worry about embellishments and pictures later, plan to do it for my dad for fathers day as it should be relatively cheap to post over to Bulgria.

    Mandy I sent the link to you, also sent it to Rainmac, both by email. :)

    Rainmac, I saw your comment on my blog, afraid my card candy hasn't arrived yet, I just used black brads on the doors as I haven't stuck them down other than brads and then the cowboy stuck on them :)
    Absolutely beautiful cards on your blog!! your american football ones is great! although my fave is the butterfly one it is sooo pretty! I want my card candy to hurry up and arrive!!!

    I am struggling to remember who made which beautiful card? I know there were lots of green ones, which are all beautiful, I think this challenge has really bought the good out of people in so many different ways.
    and the baby card aswell, I haven't as yet tried it, but looks fairly easy to do, looks really beautiful and so different!

    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

    Yep a corner rounder, I have the X Cut one and use it all the time on nearly every card :p

    I set a card challenge on this thread on Monday with the theme of 'green'. All you need to enter is to make a green card and you can interpret 'green' any way you like. It's a just for fun challenge. The challenge lasts a fortnight, looking forward to seeing yours ;)

    thanks rusty for the link:A. I have a question though for anyone who has printed the images out... how big do they print out? either your cards are all bigger than mine or your images are smaller! mine seem to be huge!
