    Rainmac - congratulations!!!!! She will love your stuff.

    Jailhousebabe - great cards. I love the papers that you've used to make your pram and the lace looks so pretty. The papers look fab with the forever friends image too. Your ribbon challenge card is gorgeous too - I love the way that you've looped the ribbon. And your nesties card looks lovely.

    The_wife - fab xmas card. Your snowman is so cute.

    Bunbun2 - hope you calm down - your card is lovely - the colours look gorgeous together.

    What are you still doing here all bright and bushy tailed??? :p Every time I see your name my heart skips a beat cos I think you're going to say you've had the baby ;)

    Lovely xmas cards the-wife and bunbun; I love the image on your card the-wife, and the paper on yours is gorgeous bunbun. :)

    The-Wife - flourgirl got it spot on, the paper on my cards is from K&Co Isabella. It's so pretty I just kept looking at it and not using it (like my Basic Grey papers :o). I've resolved to start actually using them now, and I think my cards have improved as a result!

    I've just posted pictures of my altered challenge on Crafty Place. Thanks for the challenge Rusty, I'm really happy with what I now have in place of a box that would eventually have gone in the bin!
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Got up this morning and thought I really have to do some housework, especially clean the windows, so I have done them all through the bungalow, then went to my friends on my bike. Well my shoulder is now agony, I think I did too much and am back at square one. Ive had 2 lots of pain killers and am just waiting for them to work. I have also managed to take photos of the cards I made yesterday and pop them on my blog.

    Evening all, some fab cards and altered containers all over! well done to you all.

    I have just sent a snotty email for funky kits. I still haven't recieved my order from them for the sugar nellie goody bag. She hasn't replied to any emails either!!! it is now almost 1 calendar month since it was ordered (ordered tues 16th June!!) I am soooo annoyed by it all.

    If others are using this company then please be aware :( I know some of you have ordered without problems though.
