Rainmac - crikey - that was an expensive hour of peace!!!

Rusty - I have to agree with you - I love having boys - when my nieces come to visit they drive me crackers - they are so much noisier and they're soooo temperamental!!

Jhb what a smashing card! that is so cute.

I've posted Master Elliot's card on my blog, I did a tri-fold as the challenge too but I might have another go as I quite like the slanty ones. Whoopidoo's brilliant ATC is there too.

Here's my baby challenge card, it's going to look very familiar Mel as it's the one I made Elliot



I've added this and a few other bits and bobs to my very neglected blog. I hope I have finally caught up with all of yours

EDIT: sorry for the carp pic, looks bit better in real life honest ;-)

OMG :eek: I am going to have to have Eskimo Kisses and Nook & Pantry, they are adorable Eskimo Kisses is perfect for gorgeous Xmas cards

Forgot to tell you ladies that I have sold 2 nappy cakes via the florist :T. Well, one properly and one to a friend who wanted me to make her one but insisted on buying it from the shop.

Melissa - you can put me on the rota for looking after Elliot (is that the right spelling?) Think I'm near enough to collect!! Seriously, get plenty of rest if you can

Ok then add me to the rota then I can introduce my 'big' Elliot to your 'little' Elliot!! My Elliot has always been the little one as we only know older Elliots so it will be very exciting!!! Is your Elliot spelt like this?? IE two L's and one T??

I do quite like Padsters idea though of all of us crafting together instead!!
