    Well done dragonllew.
    Got your parcel together last night but all the tidying up requird to find all the bits exhausted me so I never wuite got around to parcelling it up. Will try tonight. Have been feeling a little under the weather - nothing major but all plans of nights out whilst my boy is away with his Granny have been replaced by early nights and long sleeps. My record so far is 11 and a half hours which is not bad for a night where I have to get up for work.
    Still no sign of my calico craft flowers ;-(, Had snotty email from them tooso am hoping that Royal Mail surprise me and actually manage to deliver them.

    Congratulations dragonllew :j
    mumhug - fingers are crossed for your sister (tempted to cross my legs as well at the thought of what she's going through! :p)

    craftygranny - I think Kaitlyn's a very lucky girl to have you in her life x

    Louby-lou-lou - I have a set of these stamps if they're any use to you for announcement cards?

    I placed a (small) order with cuddly buddly last week; when it arrived yesterday it was missing three sheets of peel-offs and a set of stamps, but they'd sent me two lots of the baby stamps. They were very helpful when I rang them and will be sending the missing items out along with a free rubber stamp for my inconvenience. They also told me not to bother returning the baby stamps, but to give them to a friend. I'll definitely shop with Cuddly Buddly again, their customer service was fantastic.
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Just wanted to apologise as I haven't commented on anyones cards or posted on here for a couple of days.

    Saveapenny, hope all went ok.


    Just wanted to let you guys know that my crafty mojo has completely vanished, I ended up using a card I had previously made for DS's teacher as a thankyou. but I seriously can't make cards hence no posts on here. I have tidied up all of my stash and have now put it all in the garage. I have some stamps which I need to put up for sale on ebay (unless I can sell through craftyplace?) and I also plan to sell my big squeeze which has only been used twice and also all of the dies for that that I have accumulated.

    Feel a bit better for the craft stash being in the garage to be honest, not sure whats up with me but feel so low and can't pull my finger out to get anything done. I will still come on and look at all the beautiful cards but please forgive me if I don't reply to the posts or anything!

    Do you think this is any good for the CP all one colour challenge? if not i won't put it in. It is for my brothers wedding anniversary this week. I bet you can't guess where the flowers are from? :rotfl:

    This one is the 30th card i need this week, I wanted an image of a lady in a wine glass. I found it but the lady was very large and my friend is going to a slimming club and has lost 2 stone so i didn't think she would like it. Thanks for everyones help with flip flops they are inside the card on the insert.
