    Princesswoo - your OH sounds lovely - I tried to send you a PM but I couldn't as your inbox is full!!!

    Marg - your card is lovely - the image is really pretty. I've finally posted your "friendship" card swap today - sorry I'm so late!!

    Ali - I'm sorry I still haven't sent your goodies off, I promise I'll do it this week!
  • marg your card arrived today and i think rusty your parcel did but i was at work so have to go and collect it, but have to wait 48 hrs for some reason!
    saveapenny i can't believe that silly woman wasting hers and your time and money.
    so jealous of all of you going to the NEC on Friday :(
    craftygranny- would love to see you 2wheeling round primark!

    hope your all well, haven't had time to take any pics of any cards that i have made. they have all been last minute jobs that i have thrown together. also one of my best friends dad died on friday so have been worried about her and spent a long time searching for an appropiate message for the card.

    i'm still lurking and will get round to looking at the blogs!

    Thank you for your kind words about my card - it was Saveapenny who told me ages ago how to colour a plain line drawing so it matches your paper & that's what I tried to do here.

    Melissa - don't worry about being late with my friendship card I only posted mine on Monday - it's the thought that counts & I haven't got 3 littlies to look after.

    CGC - Thanks for letting me know

    Just popping on to say I will finally be posting my RAKs tomorrow! Feeling a bit bad as I've just shoved the bits in envelopes, but if I waited till I had time to make a nice accompanying card (like I wanted to) I will never get round to it!

    Sooooo looking forward to Friday!
  • marge just re-read my previous post and realised i forgot to say thank you and i love the fairy, is it lilli of the valley?
