    Glittermum Don't know if this is any use to you but a friend of mine had a breast reduction and I bought her a blank card with two puppies on it wrote about "How she should enjoy her new puppies" You could substitue "jugs" etc. She liked it (this was before I started making my own)

    I've put a new card on my blog - I'm not sure whether I like it or not. Will catch up properly later (supposed to be working :()


    wow 62 years thats pretty amazing, I bet not many people get to that nowadays

    absolutely LOVE the card with the drawer, how did you make it ???????

    Thankyou for your comments :A I have done some sort of instructions, probably as clear as mud :rotfl:but you should get the gist of it. I will post them on my blog later.

    Just waiting for a phone call from the hospital to pick my Dad up. His pluming is all fixed and he's just waiting for early release! :rotfl:


    Change of plan, they want to keep him in tonight!!

    Will go and try to put some sort of instructions on the blog about the box :)

    Craftygranny - so sorry to hear about your b-i-l. Hope things turn out alright.

    Sorry I can't keep up at the moment, we have another crisis with my Mom's health, now in an elderly person's HDU/infectious diseases ward and extremely ill. My bro asked me to make the journey to Bham then because of a possible risk of C.Diff told me not to because of the risk of me bringing infection back to my OH who is not in a position to fight it due to his health position.

    I'm dipping into the thread but not everything is sinking in. I was going to join in the card swap but not really in the right head space at the moment. Flourgirl - I will be in touch soon, thanks again.

    Lyndach - hugs to you, also anyone else who needs them right now.

    will have a look later, really love the idea of the card with the box
  • Craftgranny - big big hugs - what a worry for you
    Tom's mum - what a dreadful decision to have to make.

    For Sugar Nellie fans - Elizabeth Bell now Belles and Whistles now does digis :j:j - in the interests of research (as I couldn't see a price on the page) I invested the princely sum of $3 roughly £1.95
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p
