Hi Giggle

Lovely invites!

Yes, that's the idea - I have an idea of the pocket style, but it's finding the carriage and horses that's the biggest problem! lol

Sally - are these any good? I've bought stuff from her before and she's really helpful - can't help with horses though .

Sorry to hear about your OH - I think exes are just sent to try us :mad:

Thriftyscotslass - beautiful card - I love the image.

Mary - sounds like you got loads of bargains - I too love those lotus papers.

Rainmac - good luck at your meeting - I sky plussed it - OH says he will watch it with me but I know he wont! I'll wait 'til I've recorded a few and then watch them over a couple of days.

Dragonflew - great card - those free MME papers really are gorgeous!!!

Jigga - your OH sounds lovely - you'll have to show us some pics of your desk!!!

Evening everyone.

Finally got around to making my first card this afternoon. It's not great, but I have learnt a fair bit from doing it! I've posted a picture on my blog for anyone that fancies having a look. Would be grateful for any comments or guidance on what I have done wrong or how I can improve things. Thanks.

Wanna-b - your card is perfect!!! I love how you've layered the papers and used the scallop circles!

Updated my blog with a challenge card earlier and thought I would give the blog a tweek and add a signature. OMG I wish I had left things alone, I have just spent the best part of 2 hours trying to get things back to how they were!! Had to ask for help from DH, so lesson learnt, leave well alone
