I am needing some more blank cards, any one know of any good cheap ones and where can I get them please.

I have just ordered some from WHSmiths for £2.93 for 50 and that is to pick up instore. You can have them delivered but they wanted over £3.00 and I couldnt justify paying it but then it depends on how many you want and whether you can get to the shop to pick them up or not. Hope this helps.

Sorry if the picture comes out quite big, but here's my attempt of a Birthday Card! I really struggled with the wire as you can see! I'll keep trying!

Furrypig - your daughter's card is beautiful and so detailed, yours are lovely too

Hels - I love your card, striking yet understated :T I think your wire-work looks great but have you tried bending wire round a pencil? - it can help to keep control of it.

I have done some more art work I will scan it into the Pc when I get chance. SO busy at the moment so much to do so little time. My migrane has improved a lot today although its still there in the back ground.

Hope your all ok,

furrypig and daughter - the flowery card looks like it took ages, your daughter certainly has a lot of patience! love the monochrome on your 2 cards, I always find black and white/silver always looks so effective

hels - lovely card, I've never used wire before, great idea using it for the flower stems!

zls - glad you're feeling a bit better.

great blogs from Polly and madmam - I'd love to have the time for a blog! perhaps if I didnt spend so much time reading other peoples... lol
