Just catching up on this thread after a busy weekend - thank you flourgirl for the award - having never got one before, what do I do to get it on my blog and pass it on ??

Thanks

CT just had a quick look on your blog, I see you have a picture and link for Crafty Place you do exactly the same to put the award onto your blog
ie save the image go to layout, add a gadget then click on picture, copy and paste your image and I added a link to cindersmacfee as she was the one gave the award to me. Im sure you can do it you are much cleverer with the computer than me and I did it. Then you just make a normal post and nominate 5 more people to pass it on to. Hope that makes sense.

OH found me some funky papers, which I think are supposed to be for digital scrapbooking! However they look fab printed out, Not too happy with the animals for some reason they haven't worked how I wanted them to but I think I know what the problem is!

What do you think?

Thanks Hamish for the blog award

Kim Possible - lovely cards, so pretty :T

bunbun - wow you've been busy, fab cards, my fave is the first one, the girl on the bench x

Rusty - your HSM card is fab as is the animal card, if you don't think it looks finished you could add a couple fo flowers on the grass? I think it looks lovely as it is and love the horse

salesadmin - fab green card :j

mumhug - love your matchbook, clever lady

manson - fab cards on your brand new blog, love the swirls on your green challenge card :T

melissa - I bought a couple of sets of those cheapie coasters to make little albums. They are fab quality and not too thick.

My hairdresser gave birth to twin girls at the weekend. Several weeks early but everyone is fine. Need to make a pretty pink card

Well I will check back tonight to see if anyone else enters the green challenge. Winner of my little prize will be announced tomorrow. Thanks to everyone for entering, we've seen a fab array of cards.

So next fortnight's challenge is Father's Day/ other Male card.

rainmac,
thanks for your comments on my blog i made the flowers using the super duper daisy punch from craftsuperstore
http://www.craftsuperstore.co.uk/Crafts/Craft-Punches/Large-and-Medium-Punches/sc1079_p6.aspx
only trouble is all my cards are going to end up with flowers on lol
ps ... think its the best punch i've bought the flowers are about 3 inch in size

Hello everyone.
Just a quick note to say that if you are participating in the Stashswap over on Craftyplace, pls check your PMs as I have sent you details of who you should be sending your goodies too.

Right - I didn't see how Saveapenny had done the swaps she was organising before I all sent you a PM and her method was much easier!
I think it ' will confuse things even more if I change things now so for the time being: please check your PMs and ask for the address of the user you have been assigned. Send them a goodie stash. You will recieve a goodie stash from someone different.

In summary: each person sends out one goodie stash. Each person receives a goodie stash but from someone other than the person they sent the goodie stash to.

If this is clear as mud (I don't blame you!!) please contact me.

Sorry!!!!!!!!!!!
Next month I will do things intelligently like Saveapenny
