    Thank you everyone for your kind comments about my cards

    Melissa - Lovely cards on your blog I especially like the summer one and your nappy cake looks good too.

    Bunbun Your OH's cards look very 'cool' especially the guitarist

    Gemma - I'm not having problems putting cards on the crafty place I just don't know how! or where to put them. Love your craft room so organised & tidy & I love Pink. I've recently moved crafting into the spare room but it looks a tip as I'm waiting to get a proper desk & storage instead of my grandad's old dining table.

    Well Done Saveapenny on getting the upgrade
    Snipped
    "Well Im all booked and on my holidays from this Saturday..lol
    I managed to grab one of the cabins on the cruise I wanted in the first place
    So Norway here I come 12 nights for cold damp weather lol ..somebody remind me why I wanted this cruise"

    You can now enjoy the cold damp weather in comfort!!!:rotfl: Seriously, I Hope you have a lovely time & recover from the rigours of the last few weeks.

    I'm not organised at all the swap card was last months!

    Rusty - Haven't forgotten about your scalloped circles just not had time yet this week.

    The wife - Hope you had a good day out.

    The sun in shining so it is going to be a gardening day today.

    I made a Anniversary card for my DS last night so will post it on my blog after this catch up.

    Bunbun - I love the cards you made for your OH especially the one made by DS2. His colouring in is fantastic ! :j

    Melissa - I love your nappy cake especially how you have "dressed up" teddy. Your new cards are also beautiful and I have left comments on your blog

    Paddingtondoo - Thanks for the info re: Funky Fairy Papers, thankfully it does not tempt me because I have run out of coloured ink on my printer and it will cost approx. £60 to replace :eek:

    Rainmac - I cannot wait to see your nappy cake, hurry up and post the pics !

    Saveapenny - the highest mini suite on your cruise - I'm extra jealous now !

    I have posted last night's creation of a Anniversary card on my blog. http://emma-madcatwoman.blogspot.com/

    The image I used was a free printable from Pollycraft Designs which I downloaded ages ago. Unfortunately, I cannot find it on their website. Let me know if you want a copy and I will send it to you.

    Melissa - Well what can I say lady??



    WOW! your nappy cake looks beautiful!!! I am soooo impressed y your first attempt, I guess that means that as you have such a beautiful cake that the tutorial was a readable??
    I also love the cards, again the pirate card, but also the gorjuss girl one? what papers are they?? they really work well together?

    Emma - beautiful card, I love the image :)

    I'm not sure if I have missed anyone? sorry if I have?missed you I haven't done it intentionally :)

    For those in need of school uniforms I had an email last night Asda are doing a deal on things which are working out very cheap ... I also noticed someone posted it here - Asda Deal

    And last but not least ..... I still haven't played with my bug :( I can't believe I fell asleep when it was sitting there shouting me!!!

    I've been away for a day and 6 pages to catch up on

    Mumhug Sending (((((hugs)))) and thinking of you.

    Rusty so glad that you G'dad had such a wonderful celebration of his life.

    Emma I know Ongar very well, I used to work at Waltham Abbey and would always come through Ongar when the M25 would play up. I now live out on the coast miles away from the nearest town of Maldon.

    Fifi thank you for your comments on my blog and after this message I am off to check everyone out.

    flourgirl the Dalmatian cards are brilliant, I recognise the Pink Petticoat sentiments, anyone need those type of sentiments just let me know.

    Bun-bun, your cards are brilliant too, you are all going to have to hold my hand while I get into this multi-paper kind of card, tend to stick to two.

    Gemma off to check your blog out.

    Marg Lurve those pink cards especially the handbag one.

    Rusty have you found a supplier for your nesties, if not, try Joanna Sheen's website, www.joannasheen.com she does free postage. Check out first if you want to wait for the classic scallop circles (out of stock) or get the petite scallop circles.

    Mel off to check your blog
    :whistle: Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the ground each morning the devil says, "OH CARP, SHE'S UP"! :whistle:

    Rusty - you will need a ?brown? slightly jelly like mat when you use your scalloped circles with the bug.

    Emma - Love your anniversary card

    Dragonllew - Hope your hand is better soon - What did you do to it?
