Fab cards everyone will leave comments on blogs later

i just got some fairy stamps and would like some nice papers to go with them. Does anyone have the dovecraft fantasy ones and are they any good?

skiergirl I use an a3 craftmat from the works too it's great came with a metal ruler and a craft knife too.

I've got those papers I love them the only thing I find is that the papers are so lovely I don't want to add anything to them. I have used them on some of my cards here the fairy one at the bottom http://dragonllew.blogspot.com/2009/04/more-cards.html and these dragon ones http://s661.photobucket.com/albums/uu332/dragonllew/?action=view&current=SP_A0139.jpg.
Skiergirl I also use an A3 craft mat to work on.

I know to come and chat flourgirl think its still my shyness taking over lol
Well tonight I promised myself to make 2 fathers day cards and 2 birthday cards but haven't . I've sat here watching my boyfriend trying to build a remote control plane that cost £90:eek: he has no patience whatsoever and has nearly thrown it across room and why?? because he's a man and didn't read the instructions lol

thinking i might join in the challenge have got some bits from lili of the valley so might have a play with them

Great cards to everyone who's posted ( not very good at saying well done but i press the thankyou button quite well lol:j)

:j melsharpshooter has said hi

Men also shout at the tv when they are playing on xbox 360 :rotfl:
See a woman would use her head ... Instructions are put in the box ..... to instruct you how to do it

flourgirl

It's great to hear from you Melsharpshooter. My hubby always says instructions are for when it goes wrong lol

I hope you find time to join in then next challenge. I have really enjoyed doing them, sometimes they take you out of your comfort zone with amazing results. I think my card making has deffinately stepped up a level since joining this forum thanks to all the help and advice I have had from all you lovely people.

I have been having a bit of internet trouble this evening and have not been able to look at all your cards and make comments. It seems to be ok at the moment so I will go and have a look now.

No it still won't let me look at the blogs, cant even get on mine

melsharpshooter

lol i have said hi in the past don't think you saw it though lol
yes i know the xbox one he's given up on plane and gone on that so me thinks i'll retreat upstairs to make my cards before the swearing really kicks in lol
