Lucylu - fab anniversary card for your aunt and uncle - love the colours you've used.

Melissa - gorgeous cards on your blog - i've left a comment.

Sally - absolutely gorgeous cards - the baby one is very modern and looks great in black & white. The D&D on is cute, and you have used that fab paper again (where did you get it from?) and the sympathy one is very elegant.

Thomas (Rusty) wow, what a really pretty card. I love the way you have coloured the image in - does it look like your teacher? I'm sure she will love it. May have to get my 6 year old to make a card, then you can have a card friend.

Hiya CT

Sorry for the delay in replying.

The paper is sold in sheets in my craft shop - I can only see it in purple and blue - if you want I can pick up some for you and post it to you?

Evening Ladies, I see you have all been busy again!

Sally All 3 of your cards are lovely. I think I like the baby one the best.

Thomas Yet another fab card. You are very good at coluring in. I look forward to seeing some more of your cards on here

Hamish222 Thanks for the link to the football paper. The Newcastle United one will be perfect for my bfs birthday in June

npsmama Thanks for the link, I'm trying my best not to look or I'll order something!

Lucy Lu I love all your cards, they are such nice colours.

Dawnteabag I bet your sister will love her card & pressie, they are great. Thanks for the link to the cheap cards on WH Smith, I've just ordered some for me (& my Mam), my Granny & my Mams cousin! We're slowly but surely getting everyone into cardmaking

Rainmac Those cards are so nice, you are very talented! Thanks for the link, I might try it one day

Quiksave Glad to hear you like your Cuttlebug. My Mam & I have just bought one. I haven't had much time to play with it yet but no doubt all my cards will have little cuttlebug touches soon too!

Flourgirl What a lovely purple card, I really like the backing paper.
I love the apron card made by Emma. I saw one similar a while ago & saved the idea for future use. I'll definately be trying it now coz it looks fab

Hope I haven't missed anyone out. I'm off to check out some blogs now

dragonllew lovely cards on your blog. Is the hula girl a stamp? That would be perfect for a scrapbook page I am planning to do after my best friends hen do (as one night she wants us to dress as hula girls!)

Just tried to post a pic of one of my cards again & I still haven't got enough posts!

Wow some major catching up
All the cards are fantastic but my favourite as to be Thomas's hes just so talented
Melissa have you tried printing onto normal flowers http://pinkpetticoat.blogspot.com/2009/04/print-your-own-ribbon.html it also works on flowers I tried it last night. I just used one of those 2 in 1 glue markers left it to go tacky then stick the flowers onto a piece of paper then printed them.
Padington well done on the Funky Fairies challenge win your card was excellent
Dragon..fantastic stash from Rainmac
Sally ...fantastic babdy card
Lucylu..great selection of cards on your blog
Flourgirl...Lovely cards on your self the apron one is so clever..I love the colours and the Lily of the Valley flower on your friends card for her "other birthday"...lol love the ide I am going to get my one of those other birthdays
Rainmac...Those diamond cards are realy good such a clever idea and so different

Good Morning Everyone

Thanks for the kind comments regarding the Apron card, I just 'borrowed/copied' the idea from a card featured in the latest issue of the Docrafts Creativity magazine. The template for the apron came from Mirkwood Designs http://www.ruthannzaroff.com/mirkwooddesigns/barbecue.htm

I have started toilet training my 3 year old and spent the whole day running up and down the stairs - I was shattered last night :rotfl:

I can hear him stiring so do not have time to comment on each card individually but beautiful cards everyone :T. I will catch up with everyone's blogs later.

I bought a new digital image called 'Spaceman Josh' and made a quick card with it last night. Just PM me if you want the information (wink, wink !)

I have also added my entry for the Father's Day challenge on my blog.

Right, I need to put on my trainers now - at least I am getting a 'free' stairs workout :rotfl:
