Happy Birthday 'Furrypig' - hope you have had a great day and been spoilt rotten.

Well done on your wins - Gemm and Choccy. Enjoy the cakes Choccy, with all this talk of how delicious the Alice cake is, I might have a go at making one tomorrow.

Fab cards Flourgirl.

Hope you managed to find a craft shop on your shopping trip JHB, and got some bargains.

Glad to hear your son is feeling a bit better Rainmac.

Dragonlew, hope you are feeling better soon.

evening all, I wonder if anyone can help I was in a craft shop a few weeks ago and saw a lovely large rubber stamp, it was wood mounted and was of about 16 cat faces split in different poses (like a proper picture not 'cartoony') arranged in rows of 4, it was a rectangular image.

It was £11.99 but I didn't buy it as I wanted to check out online prices first, but now I can't find it anywhere for the life of me, I did check the maker but have conveniently forgotten it!! anyone know what I mean or am I waffling? feel free to tell me if I'm making no sense whatsoever

I now know how to use my crop a dile:j rusty showed me how to use it - I'm not very clever you know! her halloween bags are fab (made even better with 2 holes made with a crop a dile!) and I am going to pinch the idea for my boys

ooh yay I've just been browsing around in blogland and found out that I've won last week's stampin chic challenge :j not sure what I've won yet though!!

Well done Gemm, let us know what you win :T :T :T

Ali, sorry forgot to reply about the butter earlier . The recipe says 2 tbsp but I tend to just cut a block off the end, maybe 20-25g? The recipe is very forgiving so you don't need to worry too much about being too precise, it is VERY yummy x

I've had my third slice of flourgirl's cake tonight, blimey it's lovely with a cuppa

Got to Ikea today and exchanged 15 books for £15 of gift cards (quickly spent those!). I have got another horrible cold or a touch of what DS1 has, so fed up of not feeling great. Have almost lost my voice, OH is probably quite happy about that
