    npsmama - I'm sorry I've just realised that I missed off your card. I too think its genius how you have him sitting in the circle - I really like the colours that you've used and the other circles - how have you done them???

    The other circles are just the same paper as the baking paper but I cut the circles out - nothing clever or anything! The paper is papermania mens stack - I think.

    Thank you so much for your kind words.

    and thank you too to everyone else.

    Just had a look at this site that MrsTidge mentioned above, it has some really cute images. Rusty it may be worth you looking they are right up your street;) x

    Duly noted ;) Give me some time, I am up to my eyes with things going on at the min and my pain thresh hold is none existant at the minute ... but I shall sort them out ;)

    Lovely cards ladies really beautiful as always!!

    I have QVC on now ;) although not buying anything as OH went to pay for our shopping earlier on and it was all rejected :( ... looks like we only have credit cards to live on now!

    JHB sorry you have added my name to the list, but I haven't made a card for this challenge, sorry but with being in the midlands for a few days and trying to sort out funeral arrangements etc etc cardmaking has taken the back burner!
    Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists
