    Oooh here ladies, I found this ;) thought I would do a quick search before trying to make one myself .... if anyone still wants me to make one with all the new colours then let me know and I will :) Promarker colour chart for you to fill in ;) I would recommend printing it on card!

    Yeah, I have made another card - it looks a lot better than the last one - Thank you again rainmac - hope the postman comes to you today! I have made a card with a handbag on it using some lovely paper that rainmac sent me and copied a template off a site that I googled - this is for my sister in law who is handbag daft - and buys a new one every week :rolleyes: I am going to try and put a pic. up for your feedback - but I think I need my husbands help as a complete technophobe unless does anybody know can I put it on word and then copy and paste it onto this thread??:confused:

    Soppy moment alert!

    I am siting here packaging up my stash swap and swap card and thinking how much I am enjoying being part of this little community. I already had a fabulous life so wasn't looking to fill any holes or anything but just feel that 'knowing' all you ladies, and feeling how supportive of each other everyone is I know it has enriched my life.

    Soppy moment over.

    Thanks you guys.

    I'm wondeing if one of you knowlegable card makers can help me out please. Each year DS makes his xmas cards for gran/teachers etc but I can only seem to find white/cream cards at good prices. ELC are out of stock of coloured ones and Baker Ross seems expensive compared to Tesco's prices.

    I'd just like some red/green cards or other xmas coloured cards rather than plain white or pastel colours. Are there any other good sites that do them?
  • Good morning all, as blog candy seems to be the in thing at the moment I've decided to offer some in honour of my birthday in 2 weeks! I've put the info on my blog, it's not much but just wanted to share with you lovely ladies and see what ideas I can get for my wedding (which we are thinking of bringing forward from 2011 to next year!) Hence the wedding theme of the challenge.

    Polly - another gorgeous xmas card - your image is fab, and your charm is so pretty.

    Jailhousebabe - fantastic stitched card, I love your faux stitching - it looks so effective! Good luck with your exam.

    Pinkladymel - thanks for the link for the magazine, I'll definately order one today and have a nose at your layout. Your bauble is gorgeous.

    Rusty - I've just bought the blender pen - it was cheap - but I haven't used it yet, I'll let you know what I think of it when I use it. I'm tempted to get the glod/silver pens too but I'm not sure what they'd be like.

    Gemm - I will try and enter the challenge - I think its a brill theme, it just I haven't had time to get much done - I am so far behind with all of my challenges/ swaps.

    TinyPablo - welcome to the thread.

    Flourgirl - hope you have a fab time and lovely weather.
  • Just one more thing....Can my stitching card be a cross stitch card or should it be a papercraft card?
