    Hi ladies,

    Sorry my son is extra proud and independant tonight, he made the card all by himself, I only helped with the double sided tapes and the card candy, there was even minimal help with the stamping itself! He was so proud that he asked if he could enter it into a competition, so we have posted it on here, and if I am not too late I might enter it into the minimalist challenge.

    Please be honest with his cards as he is desperate to read the replys lol.

    Wow, Thomas! What a fantastic card! The colouring in is perfect, and such lovely rounded corners. Did you really do all that yourself? Mummy should let you play with her stash more often ;) x
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    They're cute, but I prefer the snag 'em ones!

    No mummy really shouldn't!!! lol he wanted to put everything on the card ... he kept picking everything up and wanting to us it!! I nearly taped his fingers together to stop him fiddling lol ... the corner rounder he needed a little help with aswell as he didn't have enough muscles for pushing it down enough to actually cut.

    Thankyou ladies for the replies... he is about to head up to bed a very happy boy and he said to give you all kisses! bless him

    Saveapenny well done on the orders! you sound as busy as me!

    Hi, I've been working my way through this thread (phew!) and earlier today found a link that minimacka made to a blog called Dottie's World. All this week she is having a 'card party' with lots of yummy crafting blog candy to be won.

    Today, you just have to spot the difference. But you need to have a blog so she knows you're not just someone going to run off with the craft goodies and sell them on ebay! ;)

    This is the link: http://dotties-wonderful-world.blogspot.com/

    (I haven't got a blog so its yours for the taking! :D) Good luck!
    I don't want to make money, I just want to be wonderful

    Thomas - brilliant card - we now know who's really been colouring mummy's images for her :D.

    perhaps santa might bring you your own craft box - then you can tell mummy to keep out just like Abby does to me :rotfl:
