Lol at Rusty - making her fold and stuff them herself I don't blame you missus! I'm shattered as well today, I fell asleep on the sofa earlier. Have just got home from looking after best friend's 2 LO's while she was seeing the midwife, now sis is on the way here to drop her 2 off!
Rainmac - glad ds felt well enough for a day out. £2 for parking? I can't remember the last time I saw a car park that cheap!
Another lovely card sunrise - I bought some puffy stickers from Accessorize last week, I think it was NEGirl who had used some on cards on her blog. I'm sure mine won't look as good as her's though.
Wishfulcomper - have also sent you a friend request. Your cards are lovely; can you tell me if the one with the woman resting her chin in her hand is a stamp? That's my fave.

carmim - thanks for emailing the tilda images xx
sunrise, pep pop & wishful comper - lovely cards.
I think I must be the only one who doesnt do facebook - will have to have a look into it, takes me ages to get round to doing anything technical - and hubby is soooo cautious about the internet - aargh!!
Will be going to a Stampin' up night on the 23rd to make a box and a couple of cards - really looking forward to it in one way and dreading it in another - really cant afford to buy anything else this month - having bought lots of bits and pieces at Harrogate and then spent quite a bit today on moisturiser - daren't tell hubby - hopefully he'll notice when I look gorgeous!! - Oh no- its moisturiser not magic cream - lol xx

Paddingtondoo I went to the Papermill Shop today, and was VERY dissapointed!! The colour selection was carp, plenty of yellow, orange, red, green and dark purple not much else I even went to the trouble of making myself a shade chart. The managers special wasn't up to much either the assistant said it changes every week but the white 300gsm card has all gone
On the up side we did have yummy sandwiches in Pret a Manger

Rainmac it sounds like you had a fab day out and very MSE I love those kind of days out. Its getting time to dust the National Trust tickets I think. The next time we go down to Plymouth we are going to Antony House its just over the Tamar bridge and where they filmed some of Alice in Wonderland, they have created special gardens for this year.

Not a chance, infact I don't even think she has thought about them .... maybe I should give her a gentle reminder :rotfl: makes me an easy few quid! :rotfl:

Sorry to hear papermill was rubbish, I did look at your link and wow that place looks lovely!! I would love to go there, I would also love to see the new Alice film!!

Padster - thanks for the link to the freebie!

JHB - You can always come and visit and look after my children if you want? :rotfl: you must be mad!

Peppop - love your card!

Ooh ive had an exciting day.. After getting up at 2am, ive spent all day apart from school runs crafting . Then i found out that WWE were at Tesco near us.. So i took Luke and Ben to meet 2 Wrestlers... Ive blogged it

I really must catch up with everyones blogs, ive really fallen behind.
Im working on the next DT challenge for Creative Craft World.. Its a good one to play in girls But not live yet. I will post a reminder if people want me too ? Think it starts on 18th April...

Also putting out a final call for this months stash swap over on CP. I will be doing the draw later this evening. Or first thing in the morning... I know i keep posting but dont want people to miss out, like some did last month xx

Rusty glad to hear you got the invites done. I hope you got a generous tip for all the messing about at the beginning.
We have been to Antony House before but the Alice in Wonderlands garden will be interesting. I haven't seen the film either but we were thinking about going to the IMAX at Bradford to see it. Might be too scary on a screen that big!!
