Marg - thanks for the link - now I know who you're talking about, he doesn't do much for me I'm afraid.
Rusty / Emma - I spotted those stamps a few days ago and have been trying to find places that stock them. I caved in and ordered some last night - I ended up getting them from their own USA site. The stamps were a bit cheaper if you opt for the unmounted ones, I'll have to buy some cling stuff so they stick to my acrylic blocks now. I spent about 30 quid (including postage) and bought 8 stamps (I think!!). Here's a link to their site - there's so much choice:

They are gorgeous!!! They have a grab bag listed for $15 containing 30+ unmounted stamps!!!

Rainmac - I tried to order that but when I added it to my basket things went crazy and it said my order was 2,000$ !!!!!!

I can stamp some images out when I get my stamps for anyone that wants them - save you spending $$$$$!!! I bought the ant carrying the birthday cake, tha ant carrying the cupcake, the cowboy sitting on the fence, the big cupcake, the girl sleeping, the boy playing with trucks and the girl with the umbrella, and the giraffe one.

They are really pretty! I think I need to wait a bit before I order anymore stamps though! You will have to show us when you get them

Here is my entry for the challenge, not entirely happy with it but it's ok. It's the shiny die cut decoupage and it's not really my thing, I didn't know what to put behind it so it got plain black card.
