    Gemma - congrats on your win:T
    Paddington - thanks for the cutting advice - I do have an xcut guillotine (12" if you dont mind!!;)lol - size matters:rolleyes:). I did have to get hubby to check it out though as thought it was cutting wonky - but no - it was me - couldnt even put the paper in straight for that!! I'll have to google scorpal - as not sure what they are or how I would use one - I know there has been lots of talk on here about them.

  • Well done Gemma - that candy looks fab.

    I am no way encouraging you to spend any money Ali - but I would rather spend someone else's than mine :D

    Hello Ladies

    Hope all of you who were feeling poorly, or who have poorly relatives are starting to feel better now? You've all made some lovely things lately, I don't seem to have had the time?

    I was planning to do some cards this week, but still haven't started them.

    We had a night out with work on Friday night and it was brilliant. I felt it was exactly what I was needing after all the sad news we've had this year so far.

    I did take some time out this afternoon to make another card for the GP who has been diagnosed with breast cancer - my colleagues asked me to make her one - just hope they all like it - arrrgh! Also made some more cakes:

    Hope everyone has a good week.
