    That card is stunning rusty; the colours, the candy, the flower - everything goes so well together. At least sciatica doesnt interfere with your cardmaking!
    I've sent you an (attachment heavy) email. :)
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Rusty - super card:T
    Glad you've had a proper diagnosis -slipped disc is nasty (yes,I've had that too........you name it I've probably had it............lol) It was many years ago and I was told to sit upright in a chair (no slouching on sofa) and sleep with a board under the matress and no pillows. Took 6 weeks to get better -no physio but I went to a chap who did 'backs' and stuff -can't for the love of me remember what he was -wasn't a chiropractor, something else. Painful but it worked..........and I had to pay !!
    Best of luck with the painkillers and hope you get some physio quick.

    rainmac -Happy Birthday to your Mum.........:wave: Hope she has a great day x

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

    Sorry forgot - hope your mum has a lovely day rainmac.:)

    I'm still in bed feeling more and more sorry for myself. Me and DD have tickets to see Counting Crows in Birmingham tonight and we're both too ill to go. £70 down the drain. :(
    What makes it even more annoying is that the gig was originally scheduled for December with a support act who we love, but was cancelled due to band illness. They get to re-schedule but we don't. :(
    And my stupid camera is still not working, and my mobile phone for some reason is not uploading photos to the laptop. I've made 4 cards I want to post up, but can't.
    Oh well, thanks for letting me blow off steam. Rant over. ;)

    Gorgeous card Rusty, welcome to the world of rounded corners:T
    Think I'm going to wait for the Glitter Pot offers too, they are just so efficient. I am struggling to get the Docrafts Magazine with the free stamps though:mad:

    I have just made my card for the Crafty Place 3s Challenge you can see it on my blog

    Has anyone done theirs for the Creative Card Crew yet? Minimalist.

    That's a shame, the website gives the impression that they have. Oh well, we've got no excuse for not going to the Hobbycraft fair at the NEC (apart from illness, holiday, etc... lol) as it's so nearby. I'll have to find my clubcard vouchers.

    wow flourgirl your card is gorgeous:T I love the flowers:T I am hoping to drag OH to a local garden centre on Saturday as I think they sell the x cut guillotine. they are a docraft stockist - if they have the magazine would you like me to get one for you?

    jailhousebabe sorry to hear you are still feeling unwell and really sorry to hear you and DD will miss the concert this evening. it is so unfair that they can reschedule but if you can't make it...tough

    saveapenny hope you get your kitchen sorted. anything built in is always more difficult to replace isn't it?
