Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

paddingtondoo

My stash swap arrived today Choccy - thanks ever so much - new stuff to play with :j:j Will post yours tomorrow as I took parcel to work with me and didn;t have time to stop at the PO before picking DD up - maybe will bribe her to go for me :rotfl:

I'm facebook free Wanna B and intend to stay that way - just don't have the time - if you're a member of crafty place you can always post codes on there and tell us to go look they'll stay on there

Spent my time between calls at work today to sort my challenge blogs into monthly fortnightly and weekly so will update the small list on my blog eventually - have to do something else rather than shop :rotfl:

Marg my card arrived safe and sound and what a cracking card, I love it, those doggies are brilliant, 'fess up now, where did they come from because they are so familiar. Those eyes are super. I've blogged it too.

That card is so cute - them dawgs look familiar to me too - were they a freebie somewhere.

Reminds me of my Aunts former dog called Nobby - yep unfortunate name but apparently he was a nobby little chap as in cute not as in .............................:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Padster, I'm sure you're right, it rings a bell but probably not in my brain. I think I posted that along with Marg's card. I love your Aunt's dog's name. It's as good as a chap who lives local and calls his little mutt, Cyril.

Yup! Just found him, he's Nippy from the fab Little Musings. She does some great stuff.

Padster - good idea will do that next time. You just made choke on a bit of apple - Nobby - LOL. Mind you DD's friend had a hamster called minnie which caused some chuckles (I think it could be a local term:D). The poor child was thinking of mini mouse and when the others told her it also refers to something else, she soon changed it's name!

Well done ********* on your win :T :T :T

Tiredmom, bless you, we are always worrying about our kiddies aren't we. I think it's normal to worry about such a big change, hope it all works out. I have the new Lily of the Valley baby stamp, would you like me to send you a couple of images?

Mel, I bought the digital cardstock from Craftwork Cards, it's brilliant for stamping and printing digis. The October Afternoon papers I got are Xmas ones, they are gorgeous!

I've been so busy these last couple of days, found out on Wednesday that my second cousin had given birth to her baby boy at home as planned and he was rushed to hospital as he was very blue and floppy. He's had goodness knows what tests done but all seems well now and he should be home tomorrow - phew! My brother phoned last night to say he and his partner are expecting their first baby so I am to become an Auntie for the first time - auntie rainmac has a nice ring don't you think

Today was sports day and it was a but manic but good fun. It got quite cold and started raining but all the kids seemed to have a blast. I never ever want to cut up so many oranges ever again

Big hugs to everyone, hope to catch up on blogs tonight while the footie is on xxx

Congratulations Rainmac - lovely news.

I'll hopefully pop your ATC in the post tomorrow - not sure if my post thanking you for your lovely ATC was deleted, if so I'll say thank you again. x

Evening - well the day started off nice and warm but then got overcast and rained. Looks like rain is in for the night!

Congratulations to the winner!!! Also great baby news for you Rainmac!!

I've finally finished my Father's Day card and have blogged it for anyone interested. Also made another girlie card which I have also blogged.

Are there any offers on for Promarkers at the moment as there are a few colours I would like to order!!!!!!

Rusty - I loved the photo you took earlier of that cheeky bird!!!!
