    Flourgirl - welcome back. I know - I can't believe Elliot is a week old already - its gone so fast!!! You're on the rota.

    Dragonflew - Fantastic cards - my favourite is the fishing one - I love the reeds!

    Dawnteabag - I am so jealous of your craft room - your son will be so excited when he sees it. I bet you can't wait to get crafting in there.

    I don't think i have actually posted on the new forum yet, been on hols. I was hoping to make some cards today for my craft fair but i am not very well at all it's only really a cold but when i get them i get them bad! i hope not swine flu :rotfl:I can't tell the difference. I have got to drag myself out today though as i have to deliver a nappy cake to a customer thank goodness she isn't too far away but i was hoping to stay in my pj's all day. Baby wasn't palying ball at the 20 wk scan kepts it's legs crossed so i won't know what i am having.
    Got a good bargain the other day a clear block for 49p for stamps
    :)Mummy to 2 wonderful boys :)

    Sorry to hear about your cold louby. I've been feeling carp for a few days and wasn't sure if I had swine flu or not, how are you supposed to know for sure??? Feeling better today but still not 100%.

    Made a quote book for my dad over the weekend and my first card for the Funky Fairys Challenge... http://rainmacsplace.blogspot.com/

    It's raining here today, so, couple of nice weather days and then back to boring rain :( Me and the boys went outside before the rain started and decorated the patio with chalk pictures, can't really see them now as they've been rained away, the boys love seeing them disappear before their eyes!!!
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:

    I have a huge apology to make CG, I gave my OH an envelope to post for you during the week and he fessed up that he hasn't posted it yet :mad:. So sorry, hope he will do it at work tomorrow, blokes :rolleyes:


    don't worry about it!!!!! am having a very lazy few days as i did too much over the weekend and i'm paying for it now, so cardmaking is off the agenda at the mo :(

    Louby-Lou-Lou - I've been thinking about you and wondering how your scan went! Naughty baby - crossing its legs!! Will you get another chance to find out the sex or will it be a surprise now? Hope you feel better soon.

    Rainmac - gorgeous black and white card - very classy! I wish I had bought some of those papers now - they look fab. Gorgeous quote book too, I love the ribbons - your Dad will love it! I'm glad you're feeling a bit better!

    Can I ask about craft knives - do you use them and if so what sort ?
    I use one to cut out decoupage sometimes but I'm not sure if its me or the knife, but I really struggle with it sometimes. Any recommendations, tips, hints would be welcome :D Thank you
