Completely forgot to say, Mary I am more than happy to wear my knickers however and wherever you want if it may help. Just say the word and we'll all follow your instructions

Aww rusty she sounds lovely . Sounds a lot like my grandma's sister bless her. What's her name my aunt was called minnie and my grandma was called gladys .

Gemm. Postie has just been . They are beautiful thank you .

Princesswoo got a beautiful parcel from you too. We are in love with the girl with the frog is that a greeting farm or whatever they are called ?

Thanks for all the 'knickers inside out' support -don't think it really has to be knickers........you could try a new thing every day..............lol
so go on then, how many are 'inside out' ?..........and its not just for one day.............you got to keep on doing it till the boffins get theirs brains in order and sort things out for OH.

I actually made some cards this morning that I thought might be good enough for craftygranny or ikkie (or both)
:T First time I've done any halfway decent cards for ages................still not a patch on yours but 'passabe'

mary - count me in!!!!
Gemm - congrats on your sale!!
rainmac -have you found your papers yet?? I bet they are somewhere really obvious!

Can I ask a quick question on here rather than pop over to craftyplace - I have done my atc (gulp!) but can anyone clarify if I need to put anything on the back I've googled it and some say you do and some say you dont?? Thanking you in advance!

Can't find my papers :mad:, been through the bins again and the cupboard where I keep my craft stuff. I realise they couldn't have vanished but I'm b*ggered if I can find them :rolleyes: :mad: I put some Eskimo Kisses sheets into Choccy's Crafty Place stash parcel and I haven't posted it yet and am thinking of ripping it open and giving her some other papers

On the back of my ATCs I write the date of the swap (have only ever made them for the CP swap), a 'title' for the card and my name.

Princesswoo - hope you all feel better soon - there seems to be so many bugs flying around at the minute - my middle one ha been off sick from school today with a bad cough and poor little Elliot's got a cold.

Skiergirl - sorry to hear about your friend.

Louby-Lou-Lou - sorry I'm such an idiot - I've been meaning to ask you for a while what you're having - I can't believe I didn't notice it on your sig. Have you picked out any names yet???

Mary - sorry to hear about your OH's test results - try not to worry too much. I've got my pants on inside out for you!!!

Paddingtondoo - I'm really tempted to get the big shot - its so much money though!!!!

Alyssa - great birthday card.

Gemm - well done on selling your card for 4 quid - that'll pay for a bit more stash!!!

CT19720 - your easel card is lovely - I really like the butterfly embellishment!

Lei_Armstrong - your manga card is great - the bright colours really match the image. I really need to get cracking with my xmas cards too.

Rusty - gorgeous xmas card - I love your colouring and the glitter looks fab!!!!

Rainmac - how annoying - I hope you find them soon!!!

Rainmac thank you for your email :A

Been at work again today and am in again tomorrow :eek: After the scales shock on Sunday I have decided to go to Wibbly Wobbly's (Weight Watchers) tonight, its in the village hall round the corner at 7pm. So I will be hanging my head in shame at about 1/4 past Good job the stuff in the cake shop doesn't bother me, just get sick of the sight of it!!

I really really need to make some birthday cards but cant think what to do:rolleyes: I think my mojo is having a rest somewhere! Plus I need to catch up with the blogs! Sorry to the people who have made some fantastic cards and I haven't commented on them I promise to try harder xx Rusty your snowman card is fab is it a stamp or a digi image please?

Craftygranny Just to let you know I'm thinking of your 2 very brave little ones xx

Gemm Hope the kitten is ok.

Marg Glad your cat has been given a bit longer.

Oh last Thursday at work a girl came in who was having a baby, we knew she was due any time and when we asked her about it she said "Oh I'm in labour now and on my way to the hospital but fancied a sausage roll and a vanilla slice to eat on the way":eek: On Monday she came into the shop with her new baby boy!! apparantly he is gorgeous.

Skiergirl

alyssa - fab birthday card

Gemm - fab news about your card sale, hopefully you'll get many more

Marg and Gemma hope your cats get better soon

CT - gorgeous post pals card

Lei - great card, I haven't started making my christmas cards yet :eek:

Rusty - you're right, I think your card is perfect too

Mary - hope your OH gets his next scan soon and you find out whats wrong - like you said its the wondering that drives you mad ((hugs))

THE WIFE - sorry you're still feeling today. Thank you for the links although mine has been sent to santa

Craftygranny - hope both ops go well tomorrow

Melissa - hope your DSs feel better soon

I'm still unwell but have finally got a physio appointment (been waiting since July), so thats one positive today

paddingtondoo

Melissa - I'm just paying you back for all the links you make the rest of s spend money with :p.

I had my jumper on back to front today - not sure if that will do any good or not
DD probably had her socks on inside out but she had pe today so I'm not prepared to get close enough to check :rotfl:.

Weather dried up a bit here so we have 2 more windows and the door done and at least one of the final 2 should be done tomorrow both if the glass has arrived.

I don't have your Basic Grey paper rainmac and would send it straight back if I did .

Good luck tonight flourgirl - we don't have any scales so I only get weighed when I go for a girly check up at the doctors and I ain't going for that any more often than is absolutely necessary :rotfl:

Just read your post skier - that's a mighty long wait it's only 6 weeks here
