    Wow thats great - clever girl !!! Wish I could sew but unfortunately because my mum is actually a seamstress I never was any good I think due to the fact my mum was soooo good she'd always make me stuff!!

    I still cant get photo bucket to work to show you my dolls :cry: I have uploaded them to a snapfish album, the link is below. I havent used them before and from what I can make out if you want to see the pics you would have to put in your email address and make up a password unless you are already with them. I have left a message on the photobucket forum to see if anyone on there can help me.

    I agree, the bag looks very professional.

    The cards are lovely too - are the hearts material?

    Thanks - yes the white/silver hearts are material - then the white ones are stick on foam ones, and there are pearlescent 'confetti' hearts and the silver corrogated ones are made out of silver corrogated card I bought in pound shop and I used a heart cut out stamper to make it into a heart - bought a set of 4 stampers from Tchibo for about £2 - one is a heart, one is a xmas tree, one is a star and one is a teddy!
