Thankyou the flower was so easy to make give it a go its just 8 circles folded and then stuck on another circle.

I'm going to have a go at some of the flower tutorials on that ladies site, I love the one on your card, it's gorgeous x

Mel, huge congratulations for winning, your card was by far the best

Rusty, you need to look here :j

Craftygranny, I am so jealous of your trip to the Papermill and chocolate shops, heaven or what? Hope you're feeling much better xxx

Well my littlest monkey was awake ALL NIGHT screaming, took him to the out of hours doc this morning and he has ear and throat infections as well as having chicken pox :eek:. Got a prescription for anti-biotics which OH has taken to get filled. OH took DS1 to do his karate blue-belt grading this morning as the karate instructor said they could sort of keep him away from others and he passed, clever little chap :T

Hugs to everyone, please sling any unwanted chocolate my way, I need the energy after a sleepless night

Congrats Rusty!

Rainmac - sorry to hear your littlie is so poorly - hope you manage to have a good sleep tonight.

Thanks for all your lovely comments on my photo frame - it's so nice to get feedback when you've stepped outside your comfort zone! The overall effect is a bit like lacquer - so far I'm pleased that I've stopped myself buying up loads of frames to do!

Your frame is stunning, a completely original work of art
