Thanks for all your kind words about the DT. I've only got to make 3 cards for them - the first one has got to be finished by Tues - I must confess I'm a bit nervous!!! Hopefully the postman will be kind to me today - I'm expecting more of those pretty pins with the beads on and some Martha Stewart punch around the page punches - I got the edge one and matching corner one for £19.50 from Oyster Stamps - some sets were £18.00 - I've just noticed that they've got some fab edge punches starting at £8 - think I might buy a couple - all with free postage!

Rusty - great cards!!! I love your MME papers and your flowers and leaves look so pretty together! I think I've got some of those flowers myself but I've got no idea where they came from. Thanks for the compliment - love that word - fanbloomintastic!!!

Artydoll - fab Dr. Who card - those Daleks used to scare me when I was little! Your tag card is really pretty and I love the image on your beach card!

Bolton - sorry I can't help you with decent shops for fabric scraps - maybe you could try asking on the sewing thread!

Lizalloareds - I was a bit hesitant about setting up a blog but its really simple once you get started!

Paddingtondoo - those dies look fantastic - great prices too!

The-Wife - good luck today hope you win loads of money!

Marg - thanks so much for doing that for me - you are a star!!!

Morning all. Sorry I'm going to be brief this morning have shed loads to do at home then off to sons achievers awards ceremony this evening.

I've just popped onto to say that I have a fab giveaway on my blog (I suspect this post will be removed or I'll get a smack across the wrists) and I'd love someone from here to win it.

The-Wife - good luck with the gee gees, have fun.

Marg - I'm so slow on the uptake I thought that the - - - V was some sort of rude signage to the person/s offended by our blogs, then I realised that it was an arrow to your new signature - LOL

Liz - do set up a blog, it's really simple and I'm sure everyone here will offer you as much guidance as possible.

Dragonlew - the email was a genuine offer (see my comments above). Also, thanks for the heads up re the MME papers, got them last night. Now tempted to sub for the embossing machine - like I really need it!

Sorry if I've missed anyone. Hope everyones OK. x

Lizalloareads - the lady that sells the pins has a website here I warn you though they're a bit expensive, I have to say I am addicted though, she also sells on ebay - here's a link although she's hasn't got much listed at the minute.

Congrats ********* - I agree its a gorgoeus card.

P.S. I've still not got my bum in gear :rotfl: .
