    Hello Everyone :hello:

    It's been a long time since I have been on here ! Glad to see that everyone is okay and are busy making some beautiful cards (as always !)

    Gemm, your challenge has inspired me to make a stitched card which I will post a picture of in the morning.

    Please also add me to the NEC list as I have a ticket (and one for you Gemm - let me know your address if you want me to post it to you).

    I have also jumped on the promarkers offer at Hobbycraft and ordered online from them and got them half price. I ordered 3 packs and they charged £2.95 postage which I did not think was too bad.

    My OH has one week left on leave and then I can get back to my normal card making and forum posting. We have had a very busy summer and I am looking forward to him going back to work to get some peace :D

    There you go Gemma, you were worrying about a lack of entries and you've got two first-time entrants! (Congrats also to Myzdamena :))
    Good to know you're still about Emma, but I don't believe you for a second - you know you'll miss OH as soon as he's gone! ;)
