Hi Everyone,

Hello to all the new members, lovely to meet you, and congratulations to all the winners, you really are a talented bunch, We have had a nice weekend it's been busy but good, the children enjoyed the zoo we saw the tigers being fed and held some nice insects in the close encounters,

Rusty a huge thank you for the files, I'll get to have a play sometime hopefully this week, going off Matt has brought the green laptop back and I need to transfer all the favourites over

take care Jo x

Ali - camo paper from here - there's loads of stuff on there you need to scroll down to the military section - think it's originally supposed to be for dolls houses

The sweing bag on your blog is fabulous.

Rainmac when your MIL asked if the cakes were from a packet mix you should have "no, but can you recommend the one you use" lol

Paddingtondoo - Your cards are gorgeous,your bears are so cute!

Congratulations Wanna-b-Rich!

juju - Your bracelet is gorgeous, the charms are stunning.


Can I ask a really daft question, I bought some lovely Honey and Hugs Clear Stamps the ones with the sheep,sentiments and flowers, how on earth to you get to colour them in? I have stamped them and they just come out all black, although I'm not sure what else I was expecting lol! It's just when you look at the backing of the stamps it shows them in pretty different colours! Does that make sense?

Rainmac your m-i-l sounds like a piece of work, if anyone said that to me then that would be the last homemade that they received
