    Hi npsmama

    Just been across to the craftyplace and i don't have a message about the stash swap . sorry trisha

    Thomas what a fab card you are so clever just like your mummy.

    Hiya Craftgranny
    Are you crafty grannytrish on the yuku site??? If so I am due to send you stash and I sent you a message yesterday asking for your address. If this is you (and it seems likely to me!!) why don't you just pm me on here instead then I can pop some goodies in the post to you.

    I think someone else was having problems getting messages as well on there so you are not alone. My message to you is in my sent box on there so not sure what is up!!

    Well done mookybargirl on winning the challenge. Great idea Rainmac for the next challenge as I have 5 fathers day cards to make.
    Welcome to the thread popkins look forward to seeing your cards.
    Npsmama I have messages my stash swap partner on crafty place but haven't heard back from them was going to message them on here but don't know what their name is on here.
    I have left messages on cards on blogs last night will catch up with any posted today later. Got my stuff I ordered from the glitterpot today and picked up my order from craft superstore today so going to go and have a play with that now.

    Hello everyone :hello:

    I finished the baby card I started yesterday for my hairdresser...

    IMGP3545.JPG

    I've put more views of it on my blog... http://rainmacsplace.blogspot.com/

    I used cheapie A4 white card and cut it to size. As the card was then covered with paper, it made it stronger. I really like the finished look (and it was soooo easy to do), I think I will be making lots more pocket cards ;)

    Not out of my head, I have very little in my head to be honest ;)
