Well Flourgirl ... this is for you! I was trying to find my mojo ....
I did try to follow the sketch but I really struggle with doing sketches
The stamp is one of the greetings farm ones from you know where, the green paper is from K&co hopscotch, the green cardstock from the bargain pack of 50 in WHSmiths and the flower I think was kindly sent to me by craftygranny (Where did you get them?? I want some blue ones, and maybe some pink ones ... ooh and some red ones... or do I want yellow? :rotfl:)
Oh and for those with potty minds ....

Aww That gorgeous Rusty, Cute image and beautifully co-ordinated.:T blimey you were quick off the mark, thank you for joining in.:T The flowers look like the ones from Poppicrafts. They sent me an email yesterday saying new ribbons in stock, so I had a quick look (with just one eye) well they are gorgeous. I am trying to be good this month and not buy anything, it's only the 2nd and I'm wavering already:D0

Wow Rusty - that was quick! Great card, I'd not noticed that image before
Paddingtindoo - what a great find! I've bookmarked it for later
Thanks for the nice comments on my dad card. I've been trying to remember where I got the decoupage sheet from - it was definitely someone on here's blog. I would like to say a proper thank you for it!some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it0 -
Thankyou Flourgirl
and thanks for the info re poppicrafts, I had a look and I have had a quick look and the random blooms are out of stock so will wait and hopefully pick some up when they are back in stock, they have hardly any 1" ones though which is what I think I want

Right I am answering these as i read them..
Rainmac I didnt watch QVC crafts today, i had forgotten it was onI was recovering from physio too, infact i still am :rotfl:
Hope your aches are better today ? Well done on onning the challenge. I agree go get your lottery numbers on
Fiskars shapecutter +
Well for once it sounds like i have been a very good choccy. I have used mine and i still do. I must say they are fantastic. They do take a little bit of getting used too but once you have had a few goes they are easy to use. If you are using it with a fiskars template you remove the bottom section and use it that way. You can use it free hand also by adding back the ( finger guard) drawing a pattern/ squiggle etc Then just follow it and jobs done. Its fantastic for cutting any papers, but dont try to cut a cereal packet with it, it blunts the blades !!
If anyone needs to know anything else just ask and i will have a try to answer itfurrypig says:my name is Choccy and I am addicted to nose free stamps as I want to save them all and give them noses!!!:rotfl:
About me. Im Choccy or Chocolate orange depending on where i am.Yes occasionally i am a total looon who spends too long online,but no where near as much £ as her spendy elves do ..:D0 -
