    Rainmac - it was really easy!! I got a bit confused reading the instructions for it and seeing someone's drawing, but it is simple. You start with a piece of card for the base - 12 inches by 6 inches, fold it at 3 inches and 6 inches. Then you cut a piece of card 6x6 inches and decorate it as you would any other card and stick it to the 3 inch flap that you made on the big piece of card. Then you bung a brad/button on the bottom piece so that the decorated card can be displayed. Does that make any sense??? You can make them in other sizes, but I chose to do the 6x6 one.

    Just made these what do you think? They are so easy.

    Melissa your notepads are fabulous. I have one myself :) so know first hand how beautiful and useful they are.

    Rainmac I'm glad you're ok, I was wondering if you were poorly again. Sounds like you have had a lovely weekend.

    Sounds complicated to me too, read the instructions twice but still sounds too hard for me ;)

    Thank-you for your comments.

    The Cadbury Snow Bites are covered in icing sugar so it makes them look more like real snowballs.
