He was made as a birthday card but i have had a couple of comments left about him in relation to christmas.... is it too christmassy for a bday card?
I think its the scarf but without it he looks naked!!
He does look a bit Christmassy but then I think all penguins do but then again you get a lot like this so I don't think it matters. I think he's really cute.
Right REALLY better get back to work now!0 -

Rusty Can you help - in internet explorer there is a menu options that lets you send a page link by email - how do you do it in google chrome? at the moment I'm keeping an email open and copying and pasting the web address - is there a quicker way?
Snipped you ... not a clue sorry I always copy and past!Rusty the postie has been & :-)
:eek: :mad: was there anything in the envelope Flourgirl? Could you please send me back the envelope and the bag I will kick off with them. I will cover postage costs. So sorry
Curly - You can get the cupcake Cuties from Ladybug Crafts Ink (Here) and at the minute Kerry (The owner) has a voucher code ...enter CB2010 in the voucher box and get 15% off your total order! Her stamps are lovely and I can't get enough of them!! I am on her design team aswell so get plenty of goodies to play with!Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -
snippedCT I meant to say RM never did deliver the ribbon but it's ok don't worry about sending me more. Our postman is terrible - if he only has one letter for our close he doesn't bother climbing the stairs and quite a lot of my mail goes missing. :mad:
PepPop - sorry they never arrived. I keep checking in the shop to see if they have had a new delivery and they haven't yet, but when I manage to get hold of the teddy ribbon again, I will try and send you some more - maybe to a different address?
So glad it is Friday - had a rubbish week at work, so intend to craft and make some goodies all weekend.
xx2016 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/£4,0000 -

I think it's just because its close to Christmas. It would be a nice birthday card in January and people wouldn't say it was christmasy. Its a fabulous card by the way.
thanks for posting such fab links to freebies guys. I've just updated my bl*g and still need to make loads of halloween cards!0
