Rusty your card is fab, I see you've used one of your charms on it! how did you get on and what did you want it to work out like? looks great to me

Hi Gemm,

I got on ok with the charm, but I used too thick a ribbon (think it was grosgrain) think next time I need to use a satin or chiffon ribbon. The thing which didn't look right was the flowers. OH even agreed with me when he saw the pic on my blog, but then I showed him the real thing and he said it was lovely and looked completely different to the pic!!

My inspiration was the lovely card Rainmac sent me (the pink one with 3 flowers in the bottom corner) but I think it was just my flowers which were wrong!!

Anyway it is done now, and today OH has a motorbike lesson so I plan to craft whilst he is out for the next 2 hours, providing the children will let me get on with it .

Gemm I have sent you a PM.

Hope everyone else is ok?

Look what I found! Our fab rainmac kindly sent me some mirri card, I was just going to recycle the envelope and I found this little gifty inside. Isn't it lovely and in a favourite blue shade of mine too.
