    My eyes are trying to close despite the coffee! There is only so much craft on tv you can watch!

    Tigger images - All I did was google tigger colouring pages - I expect there's everything under the sun on those - there are also lots of Eeyore one's (mine and DD's fave) I love him he's so miserable :rotfl:.

    Flowers - I found this eBay shop - haven't ordered as I'm trying to be good again! but P&P is only 90p for packets of flowers I think and free over £10 And there's a sale.

    It's my last day off work today so have housework to do but will craft later as a treat - only problem OH is working from home today and he puts me off.
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Mornin you lovely peeps. I have just posted my June Summer Challenge card on the CP forum here
    http://craftyplace.yuku.com/topic/114/master/1/?page=1
    I think saveapenny would like all comments to be made on CP too, in order to up the post counts.

    Cooler here this morning so thought I would clean up, but DH is in the snug studying his flying books and needs quiet, so no hoovering. Ahh well never mind looks like a craft day... shame :)

    Just heard a horrendous noise coming from the snug and lots of chunttering, DH's printer has packed up :mad: and it's full of ink :mad: and they dont fit my printer :mad:

    Think it's a skip job

    Jailhouse - thank you so much for randomly picking me, I am so excited. I seriously never win anything but recently won Hamish's blog candy, your challenge and am getting my name in print this week :j :j :j

    Flourgirl - uh oh, have you investigated the snug or keeping clear? I have left comments on Crafty Place about your super dooper Summer card ;)

    Rusty - love your card, it's fab :T

    Dawn - so sorry to hear about your mum, hope she gets better really quickly. Your card is gorgeous, she's bound to love it :D

    Mel - well done on getting your printer working. Mine is just about to run out of ink so need to ask OH to replace it (last time I did it I got in a real mess and needed rescuing ;)).

    Here's my card for the sketch challenge, had a lovely time making it last night. It seemed to take ages as I couldn't decide on papers to use and where exactly to stitch the flourish, whether I needed to add any flowers - decided not to but not sure if I should in the top left corner?...

    I bought the image from Poppycraft, Rusty shall I send it to you? Also bought the space boy one.
