    Huge thanks to flourgirl for the fab stash she sent me in the stash swap this month pics here.
    Here's my card for Melissa's challenge.
    And my container for Rusty challenge on crafty place.
  • Thanks the wife, it said it was card stock but I wasn't sure if thats what is was as I presumed it was papers not card?? is this right? or am I just being completely thick here??

    I have a basket full of stuff on there but haven't checked out yet lol :rotfl: probably cause OH has just walked in from his bike lesson!

    Here are the lovelys that Greenpixey made for me :)

    Oooh Rusty they are sooooooo cute

    Kim - Lovely cards
    Dragonlew - lovely makes!
    The wife - your card looks lovely when you have put the extra bits on. I thought it was lovely to start with but adding the extras does def. seem to finish it off!

    Have to ask has anyone started to create christmas cards for other halves & sons/daughters - I have made cards for family members - but thinking would buy husbands & sons (sorry!) but hubby said the other day he cant wait to see what I make for him - oh no! the pressure - I cant think of anything to make his card really special and also for my two boys. Been looking for nice papers etc. but cant seem to find anything - can anyone inspire me??

    Haven't done cards for sons yet or teenage grandson........always a problem.
    I don't do one for OH...........he always says its a bit daft for me to do one for him and it end up in my drawer..........lol
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !
