    Well, with just some encouragement from the lovely padster and flourgirl, I've sent it in to funky fairys.

    Where's me blanket, I want to hide. :o Wah! where's me woowee?

    I would have remembered that so I've definitly not received it. But.... off to check in a place that the OH often puts mail.

    I've FOUND it.... I've FOUND it.... it was where I thought it might be... under the fruit bowl, heaven knows why he leaves them there 'cos you wouldn't see it other than knowing his little foibles.

    Oh my gosh! flourgirl, that is so beautiful. It's getting pride of place on my notice board, smack bang in the middle. Will post a pic shortly.

    The-Wife - I love the way you've turned the sketch to a diagonal. I'm glad you were convinced to enter it into the callenge, it's a great card.
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Wow, that is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing, the-wife; and well done flourgirl! It really is like the photo on the blog. :)

    I'm feeling much better today, thank you flourgirl. My sister won't let me near the baby until Thursday though. I can't say I blame her, I'd probably be the same with a newborn. I've been tinkering with the nappy cake today - I think I'm happy with it now. :o I'll post pics on my blog later. (Still haven't wrapped it :o).
