    I think with the time difference there is still a little bit left for anyone who wants to try for the papertrey competition - resist embossing (emboss then ink over the top) You can win all of their ink pads etc - ive taken part heres my card and a link to their post about it! Be quick and bookmark the site as theyre having more competitions too :) *im not in anyway connected with them i just thought you might like some goodies and a comp* :D

    NEgirl maybe it would be a good idea if you could borrow a shopping trolly :) You could buy more if you didn't have to carry it!!
