here's some cards I've made for my auntie's birthday, one from me and one from my mum. I hope she likes them as she's very into vintage stuff. My only worry is that the pink one is a bit crowded, do you reckon I've gone a bit overboard with it? (click to enlarge;) )

Oh wow they are beautiful!!! Did you use diecuts for the top one? really petty both of them personally the pink one is my favourite.

I have a laugh for you ... I put my attempt at being clever for the christmas card challenge on my blog ... I screwed up big style .....

Slowly searching - have managed to find instructions for the square card - but I'm really looking for a rectangle one instructions. Searching is a nightmare as we've all been chatting about them for amonth or so so finding the posts with links in is hard work.

dawnteabag thanks for letting me know it will probably come tomorrow. She's almost finished all hers and will get them in the post tomorrow or thursday morning. She wanted the afternoon off nursery today to work on them.

She went to b n q tonight with grandad for paint. We are going to have a very very pink craft room .lol we'll never get her out of there.

I can't see anything wrong with the tree card rusty .

hello ladies
Lovely cards as always. I've been having a day off or two after the mammoth scrapbooking task but am now back with a vengeance.
I had to give my friend her cricut back after looking after it whilst she was on hols. I was thinking that I might make her a card to say thanks and wondered about making one of those wallet cards that everyone is so fond of. Is it possible to make one that is big enough to hold a couple of sheets of paper the same size as a cuttlebug embossing folder. She doesn't have one you see so I thought I'd gift her some embossd pages.
Couldsomeone point me in the directions of insructions and give me a clue as to what size paper I may want to start with?
Cheers![/QUOT
