    Oooh your cards are pretty!!! I love the little hands and feet, and I would never have thought of using a scallop circle for a pram!! how very clever!! I must try that one!
    I reckon your prices are fine ;) but are you making something on them? they look very expensive ;) Good luck :D:D

    and thanks ;)

    Thank you :D The hands and feet are from a pack by Dress It Up. I've had them for absolutely ages, got them originally in Hobbycraft I think? About £2.25 for about 40 shapes, they come in cream, pink, lilac and blue colours.

    I love your blue card, wish I could make card go all bumpy like you can ;)

    Welcome to our little community! :T

    How do you go about getting the mag in the post? I'd love that!

    Hiya and thanks for the welcome.

    The Glitter Pot always get the mag in about 7-10 days before its official release date. Postage is only £1 and their service is fabulous. My orders always arrive next day. Its much cheaper for me to get it this way as to get to my nearest docrafts stockist costs about £10 in diesel!!! I would expect them to be uploading all the new products over the next few days too if that's any help to you.

    Hi picnic - I used to put inserts in my cards, but I haven't bothered for a while. I used to buy them online from here:

    hers are great quality.
