Has anyone any ideas for the next challenge please?

How about embossing/die cuts seeing as everyone seems to be getting Cuttlebugs now?

I'm now back from my holiday in the New Forest where I dragged OH to The Range and Hobbycraft multiple times Spent lots of money but have got lots of nice things in my stash now! Have added a thank you card I made for OH's Mum to my blog http://leialegweak.blogspot.com/

I have some here that i wanted to put on my Christmas card entry. The vintage Christmas one...But i looked at it and chickened out of using it :rotfl:. I can imagine it being quite messy. But as i havent tried it thats only my opinion. . I will have a try as soon as i get back from my dads (its his birthday) and let you know if it would help ?

what about a challenge involving a thank you card?? Just thinking I need to make cards for teachers at school but if you are teacher free could be a thank you for anyone!!

I expect you lot have already made your teacher cards as I am always late with my cards lol!!

Have also posted on CCC for this weeks challenge which is ribbons so most of the cards many of you make could be entered on there!!

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: The OH has his camera at the ready to do a passport photo for me. Just might dress up in the big hat and a bit of bling and also do a housework (yuk!) tiara and the K & A gloves shot. Yep! I've got a pair! :D:D
