    I sort of stumbled across a bargain today in TK Maxx, it's a set of alphabet and number templates for the Fiskare shapecutter. It was £2.99 RRP about £11. I picked it up (only one on the shelf) and hope to have a play with the shapecutter soon to see if it will work for me :D

    :o Aw! thanks for all the kind comments, it was easier than I thought after I'd taken Gemm's advice and deleted the old one. OAP, go for it, I put it off for so long and now I can't stop doing a bit of tweaking etc. Thanks for the tip too, paddington.

    Of course!! I've been realy, really busy (not) at work today as my boss is on holiday :rotfl:

    The_wife - I'm following your blog too!

    OAP - glad you like them - I'm just sorry it took so long for me to send them to you!!

    Well I spent the morning fighting with my printer - it seems to take so long to print an image off. Then I tried putting my images into separate folders and bingo - it was so much quicker. Then my printer decided to run out of black ink (it ran out of coloured months ago), so printed some images off in a blue colour??????? Anyway thanks to Rusty Ive got loads of cute pictures to play with. I'm off to find some cheap ink now!!

    I think you just tell it the make and model of your printer and it will give you options on which inks are all suitable for your printer.

    Rainmac Thank-you for your beautiful Pink Pocket card, I love it x Must try and make some myself.

    OH has gone flying again today and I'm supposed to be loading the caravan for tomorrow and doing the washing and ironing. Rather talk to you lovely people though. I just hope it stays fine for the music festival this weekend.

    Bunbun I hope everythings gone ok at the DR's.
