    Just thought i'd post you a quick pic of the girls jessica marie is on the left as you look at it and sophie mai on the right . By the way they aren't actually my grandchildren but they are my grandchildrens sisters if you know what i mean. But their mum said they'll be calling me grandma the same as the others. Just getting the mountain of goodies together we bought for them. They went home this afternoon.

    I think thats a good price Cheapest ive found is £1.50 each but i will PM you in a mo ;)

    Slate is a very dark grey. Some people go around the image in Cool grey 1 as it makes it pop out more. But a very good selection of colours i think xx

    Thanks Choccy, off to let the spendy elves out for a bit x
    2016 is the year I am going to find time for me, and cherish the time I spend with my friends and family.
    It is also time to save - Aim £4,000 - So far this year - £230/£4,000

    Thanks for the advice on PMs Crafty Granny - skin tones have been added to my order :D. Even better, because I have realised that quidco have paid me out £60 today, so they are effectively free :D.

    Thanks Emma, I will persevere with the scoreboard, and will do it slowly and see if it is any better.

    Another flying visit from me - I haven't made any headway with my presentation for my job interview (which has been confirmed as being next Tuesday) so I thought I'd clear out some crafty tasks so I can focus on the presentation Saturday evening and Sunday (I'm on an all day scrapbooking class on Saturday - can't wait)

    So here is "&sons" card for Rusty.

    Mine is on my blog, along with one for my Granny - she's been rushed into hospital with a stroke. Mum said it was a mini-stroke at teatime but my sister has just called me to say she has rung the hospital and it sounded more major. Don't you just hate not knowing what is going on.

    Great cards for Rusty DTB - tried to leave comments but kept getting an error, so will try again tomorrow.

    Also really like the one you have done for your Granny - hope you get further news about your Granny's conditions soon, and she is feeling a lot better soon.

    CT - I'm another leftie and have found like Emma if you go slowly it's fine. I use 300 gsm cardstock for boxes, but the smaller ones seem to be fine with 250.

    Craftygranny - gorgeous babies

    Ali.b - your card made laugh, it's fab

    Choccie - thanks for the update on Rusty

    Crafty JuJu - thanks for the link, thinking of getting the girls who are coming to DD sleepover party to make memory wire bracelets, I can then give them a few other bits n pieces and that's the party bags done

    Sorry if I've missed anyone, typing from memory. x
