    I've just won some blog candy on nutcrafters blog :j It's another rubber stamp to add to my collection :D..
    Didn't post the parcel to Craftgranny today as thought there was a strike tomorrow and I parked right outside the post office when I went to get my hair cut.

    Ooooops OH has just noticed my promarkers have multiplied overnight - oh well!
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Leia, just been onto your blog and looked at your dressy anya card. That card is sssooo stunning, she is so vital, colourful and .... I love that card.
    i have been working with stamped images and promarkers for a few weeks now and that is the outcome i am aiming for.

    Ok So the challenge for tomorrow. Is to make a Bra and Pants Card. Go to my blog to get the template.
    Copy and paste the template if you wish or do it free style.The top Template is to be turned into a bra, Strapless or strapped. The Bra is the front of the card and the knickers/thong are the back of the same card.

    You prob have done this before but i was mad on doing them for all the men in my life last year and we had a few big birthdays so they were good for naughty 40 and dirty 30 cards. I made quite a few last year but it was before i started taking photos of my cards but i found this one, below on my phone that i did and thought it would be fun to do while the others are off having a good time.
    I look forward to see you work, i will draw a winner on sunday. Have fun.

    22 pages!!!!!!!! cor blimey you ladies can natter some!! I have only been missing 1 full week!!!!

    Well first to apologise, I should have been home on Monday dinnertime, however on sunday in Aberdeen it rained ... and rained ... and rained (and some more!! or rather lots more!) Local roads around Dyce were flooded, cars creaking down as they HAD to drive down certain roads and got their engines full of water :rotfl: (I shouted at OH and told him he was not under no circumstances allowed to play in the puddles whilst driving the car!!)

    Anyway to cut a long story short ... the trains were cancelled cause Stonehaven was flooded and I believe people were going down the beach to fill pillowcases with sand :eek: ... Tuesday ... still no trains ... Wednesday ... traines from dundee but I couldn't get to dundee!! :eek: so had to come home with OH today ....

    As Choccy, BunBun and Sylphraven have all said, it could only happen to me!! ... I am so glad to be home though!! and I am still going to be at the NEC tomorrow (even though we have only been home 1 hour!!)

    Can someone please update me with anything important which I have missed please?? there is no way I can catch up with 22 pages!!!! Also what are the challenges?

    Did the parcels/letters I sent out before I left arrive with some of you? think it was THE-WIFE, dragonllew, CT19720 and can't remember the other one??
