    mumhug - that's lovely, so girly and delicate. I'll try to get on to your blog later.
    dawnteabag - I love what you've done there; obviously something went right today! Did you run a thread through the ribbon then pull to get the shape?
    melissa - on these cards I've used a pritt-stick on the letters. I've used a narrow double sided tape before; that's so fiddly it takes forever!
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Hi Ladies


    Just wanted to pop on and say how fantastic everyone's latest creations are - I've not had any time during the past week to make anything, but hopefully might manage to get something made this coming week.


    Well done everyone.

    Mumhug - beautiful cards. Your homemade flowers are fab! And I love your flower fairy card - such pretty colours - the little flowers are so cute.
    Dawnteabag - well done on making your flowers - they look fab. Stuff like this sells for a bomb on ebay.
    Jailhousebabe - thanks for the tip!

    Wow lots of posts today have finally caught up on them all and have left you all comments on your blogs.
    Welcome to salesadmin and debsy1963 I have joined both your blogs and look forward to seeing more of your cards.
    Dawnteabag I love those little flowers you made I have added them to my ever growing list of things to try.
    I've just made a list of cards I need to make this week and realised I have 7 to get done some need to get my butt into gear. Love all the coloured images everyone is using, thanks to Rusty, think I may use some in the cards I need to make.
