    Evening all. Is there a current challenge on here? I seemed to think I read something about a Christmas one, but I can't find the post again:( If it is a Christmas one, does the latest post on my blog count? TIA
    The challenge is Festive Fun. If you want to enter the blog one that's fine, just PM me with the link so I can add it to my list. Thanks!

    I have uploaded my latest cards (yet more Christmas ones!) to the usual place and also the latest additions to my stash collection.

    Happy birthday to all who are having one! Xxx

    oops gave into temptation once I saw the brand new stamps at sweet pea...back to square one!
  • Hi rainmac hope your mum is much better soon.

    Happy birthday fifi folle hope you have a fab day.

    Sorry ladies i'm joining the sick list . I woke up at 6.30 this morning with the most excrutiating kidney pains. Being a diabetic i panicked and saw the doc at 9.30. I have a kidney infection and am now taking antibiotics and even more painkillers . I have to drink lots to flush them out so spend all day running for a wee. I'll try and pop back later.

    Hope everyone has a good day. How are you today myz?

    Craftygranny - hope you feel abit better soon. Kidney infections are horrible, I used to get them alot when I was younger and was quite ill at the time. Hopefully the antibiotics will kick in fast and you will feel better quickly.

    Belated Birthday Wishes to Fifi Folle - sorry didn't get a chance to post yesterday on your birthday. Hope you had a great day.

    I popped to Joann's today to get some superglue and I as was about to approach the cash desk I noticed a new display of Martha Stewart things and Nesties!!!! I was beside myself with excitiement as usually these are only available in their online shop!! They had not put many nesties out but had all the tags there ready. I had 2 x 40% off vouchers so used those and got them for £10.50 each!! I got Blossom and Large Classic Inverted Scalloped Circles. :T

    Rainmac - I hope your mum is feeling better in herself and that there has been no re-occurance of that funny turn she had. Maybe she had a water infection as that can affect you in strange ways.

    Morning all!

    I got an email yesterday confirming that my madaboutcards order is being delivered today. I'm now too scared to go for a shower in case they knock at the door :rotfl: I'm also going out this afternoon, so I'm hoping that they try and deliver this morning. Well, a girl can dream! It's been so long since I made the order that I have forgotten half of what I asked for - it's going to be like Christmas :rudolf:

    Flying Fresian that happened to me too! I forgot what I had ordered when mine came on Saturday. I'm just about to blog a card (I thought I'd catch up here first) and then I can play with my new goodies! :D

    I hope it arrives this morning for you. Have fun! :j
