rainmac it was for me, I just hope you liked the SU stuff. I love the new look of your blog, was it hard to do as that site has some gorgeous wallpapers.

It's really easy - if I managed it first go it must be REALLY easy I tell you You just paste the text blurb from the site as a gadget on your blog. I used the blurb for a 3 column blog to give my blog a bit more of a roomy look. If you use the blurb for a 2 column blog it looks more sqaushed together. If you have no idea what I'm on about please say and I'll try and do some instructions. I love love love the papers you sent me, some are far too gorgeous to cut up I fear xxx

Dragonllew thankyou for the link. I ordered mine first thing this morning.

I ordered some more pretzel bags from ebay yesterday afternoon and they came this morning!!!! How good is that!! You just watch, cos I want my new papers NOW they will be ages in coming!

Managed to buy a new stand for this humongus TV :eek:yesterday, so I have had to do housework this morning to hoover the bits of packing up. All done now and DH is outside polishing my car:D

Rainmac are your littlies better now?

Lyndach Congratulations on your win. Looking forward to joining your challenge.

Mary - Thinking of you and Mr Mary today and hoping things go ok xx

Rusty hope you are much better today too, we want you fit and well for the NEC. My email is working now so just about to send you one

rainmac

Hassy, huge well done on your card sale :j :j :j

Gemm, I'm not having any probs with Crafty Place either.

Lyndach, well done on winning the challenge, looking forward to what you set for the next one x

Padster, I love it, you put the phone down on your boss not once but TWICE :rotfl: :rotfl:

Crafty JuJu, the little stitched box on my blog is made by a company called Framecraft, I bought mine from Sew and So (brilliant customer service and p&p is only £1) along with a couple of other bits

Choccy, those Prima flowers are beautiful, I want them all!!!

Bunbun, fab news :T :T :T

Rusty, hope you are feeling better today missus, made another card with one of the uber cute images you sent me - it's here, bit out of my comfort zone as it is very green but I love it, the image is sooooo cute

Mary, huge good luck to Mr Mary xxx I haven't heard of that company before, sorry.

My number one son is back to school today :j :T :j :T Had to take him to the GP yesterday as he's developed a largeish lump in his neck . GP thinks it is due to lymph nodes that haven't drained properly from the chicken pox infection but we need to keep an eye on it. Number two son is tired but ok so fingers crossed he'll be back to preschool in the morning and I will have the morning to myself - fisrt time on my own since Monday 1st March, not that I'm counting the days or anything

Right off to find out if I have the correct thread colours to stitch an Easter design, I could be some time cos my threads are in one hell of a mess and in more than one place which is not very helpful Hoping to make some flowers like dragonllew made later on.

Have a good day everyone xxx

Tut tut ladies, I hope you have money left over for the NEC.
lei - thanks for the offer, that would be lovely x
Lyndach - I'll get something in the post either tomorrow or Friday.
macma & tiny pablo - great makes on your blogs, sorry I haven't been able to comment on them yet.
dawnteabag - your bunting looked fabulous in the photo, your sister must've been very impressed. Is she home for good now?

I hope everyone's well today. I'm feeling a bit queasy from the painkillers I took this morning for my back, and have to spend the day studying law to prepare for my lecture tomorrow. Why did I say I'd do these lectures?! Oh yeah, it was for the money
