Don't worry about it, I forget as well as my DH always works Good Friday and takes DD's birthday off instead. We are going to the caravan tomorrow until Sunday evening so I won't get chance to log on the computer tomorrow.

TiredMom - I decided to go for the big shot because there's a range of dies by sizzix called bigz and bigz xl and I'm sure that the cuttlebug can't use them. The big shot can but I think you have to buy bigger plates first. You can make some fab things with these dies. Here's one that I'm after:

I haven't got a garden so my kids have permanently got cabin fever - they've got so much pent up energy to release!

Sally - All of your boxes are fabulous! Your daughter's sock monkey is great - much better than I could do!

You really do need decent weather then to at least make it worthwhile going to the park etc. I know early in the year my DS aged 7 got so fed up with the snow as they couldn't go out to play at school and I think they were all going stir crazy, don't know how the teachers coped!:mad:

Thanks for the info about the big shot, is there anything that the cuttlebug can do that the big shot can't that you are aware of?

A card stall is a fab idea we sold cards anywhere and everywhere to help send Alicia to the US.
The lovely ladies on here all helped and we had cards, coaster Calendars , bookmarks, Scarves, Post it note holders , bags, some of flourgirls fab chocs , a beautiful knitted doll. decorated notebooks and loads of other stuff link here to pics of the lovely goodies we had. You'll need to scroll down to find the pics as the first bit is all about alicia .
If you decide to go ahead with it pm me your address and i'll happily make some goodies up for you. Or if i can help in any way just yell .

Wow loads of pages to catch up on!! Think that will have to be a job for tomorrow. I have spent my afternoon card making!! First one I made took me over 2 hours to finish :eek: but it was one I have been desperate to have a try at because it is unusual!! Here is my first attempt!

Then I made a card with the lovely stamp that Rainmac sent me some stamped images of Thankyou mrs, the images are adorable! Here is the result of that one!

If anyone knows of any current challenges can you let me know please? I am struggling to find challenges at the minute?
