Hels - Glad the card arrived safely

Marg - Glad you liked your card and flowers I noticed you mentioned you didn't have any so though I would post a couple down to you. I have quite a few from calico so just sent some over

Beautiful card Joshua

Rainmac lovely cards and beautiful suprises from Flourgirl. you are very lucky.

Can't stop, I have been shopping this morning and I am in so much pain I can barely move!! ... hospital called half an hour ago and want me to go in on monday at 3pm for my scan (so much for it taking 4 weeks for a date to come) so now have minimal time to prepare myself for what may be ahead!

I too think having less time to worry is better. Make sure you take things as easy as you can, thinking of you xxx

Made my tri-fold card last night, not quite finished but I really like it, just hope cgcockcroft does too Took me about 5 attempts to do one that folded right :rolleyes:

Mrs Tidge, yes it was the embossing I bought, I've got no chance of having a cuttlebug this side of xmas so I was quite pleased with Paddingtondoos link! I love the snowflake one, it's so effective, thank you so much for the offer that's really kind of you.
Skiegirl wow there's good you are not spending much! I could spend hours in the craft section!
Rusty hope everything goes ok on Monday we'll be thinking of you.
Well I'm off swimming this evening and I'm in work for the next two days! They've started monitoring our internet useage so i can't even get on for a sneaky peak!

Dragonflew - thanks for the link, I might give one of those cards a go - do they fit into an envelope easily?

Yep they fit into a c6 envelope

Rainmac What do you use to stick Dewdrops on to your cards please?

I have been using 3mm glue dots and they work really well

forgot to say mumhug - if you have a look down the sidebar of my blog there are a load of challenge blogs listed that you could hop round and get some inspiration. I must get round to updating it some time soon.

Also why not join in the next stash swap on crafty place - it makes you dig through what you have (I found some xmas stuff that I don't even remember buying ) and you get some new bits to play with

Talking of stash swaps, yours is winging it's way to your house
