    lovely cards willow, dragonlew and popkins!

    well done to rainmac on finishing your wedding order, I bet you're so relieved! :j

    I am recording QVC today, how sad is that! Not that there'll be anything left by the time I get home but I like to watch for inspiration!

    I can't believe the weather today, it's been raining non stop. I get really depressed when it's like this for days on end, I'm not an outdoorsy person anyway but still like the sun shining in through the windows :(

    Fabulous card Popkins - almost enough to make me want to move house & it took DH nearly 25 years to uproot me from our previous home!! Is the cross stitch lettering a particular typeface or did you cut out the letters from cross stitched paper?

    Dragonllew - Great baby cards so cool to have 'matched' them boy & girl - you watch, as soon as you put them in the box @ work you'll need one yourself!

    Melissa - Not seen QVC today - is it craft stuff? I've pm'd you

    Hiya Marg - thanks!!! Actually all the backing papers & the cross stitching lettering were downloaded from t'tinternet!!! If you'd like me to send them to you (goes for anyone else too!) just pm me no probs!! :D

    Just had to have a peep at QVC and the TSV was a huge amount of K & Co 12" x 12" papers, good value but I think I'll leave it this time. That amount would see me to the end of my days!!!!! Good buy for someone who sells on ebay.

    I bought the DCWV White Embossed paper pack from the Silly Monkeys sale, it's gorgeous!! I paid 60p for one sheet a few weeks ago so 24 for £5.50 was a bargain. I was undecided what to do for the latest challenge, I think I know now.;)

    Smashing card, popkins.

    From the Wife and her imaginary friend Shopalotten, she gets me into so much trouble!!! :eek:
    :whistle: Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the ground each morning the devil says, "OH CARP, SHE'S UP"! :whistle:

    The_Wife - The tsv was great value - I think it sold out though about 5 o'clock this morning. I think shopalotten has a sister - and she's my imaginary friend too!!!

    Mumhug so sorry I forgot to say thanks here, it was one of the envelopes that hubby confiscated and took away for my birthday week end and I have actually thanked you along with quite a few others on another forum I belong to Duh:confused: or what. Old age does not come alone.
    Your pocket card is beautiful it is the first I have seen of that design and I have unfolded it to check the construction and, if you don,t mind, I will be copying it before the week is out, I will post a picture asap. Thank you again

    Rainmac Well done for getting your wedding order completed, you can breathe now and take it steady until the next one :)

    I forgot QVC was on, will have to look at the website... or maybe not... :)

    Its not stopped raining here today, I hope its better tomorrow for travelling up north, might stay at home if its still raining :( Have done 3 loads of washing and dried it in the drier, cleaned all through and just have a bit of ironing left to do then we are ready to load the caravan up. Sorted 2 boxes of craft stuff to take and lots of books, we have been to see the oldies to make sure they are ok, so, apart from cooking tea I'm ready for my hols :)

    New challenge card on my blog

    Will go and catch up reading the posts and the blogs now.
