Oh, and managed to get 3 packs of square cello bags from wilkos today, but that for the offer to look when you get to work tomorrow x

Glad you found some let me know if you ever need anymore and can't find them.

I just found out he does like football, so I've made him a football themed card I will post later. Those stamps are really nice though! It's still hard to do generic men's cards - like my dad doesn't have any hobbies as such - he doesn't like computers, or DIY, or gardening. Women you can just do something pretty - but there are only so many shirt/tie cards you can do for one person!

Are there any good crafty January sales on? I haven't been following the thread to see any posted.

And has anyone seen any Mother's Day stuff on their travels? I have to make quite a few this year for a charity thing, so am itching to get started! I wanted to get some die cuts with 'Happy Mother's Day' on them - but all the ones I've found so far don't have an apostrophe on it. What's with that?

Sorry, I'm full of questions!

What about just dabbing a card with ink and pretending it's one of the Rorshach(?) inkblot tests? and put a psychologic profile question inside?

And I'm sorry but head is like a sieve at the moment, but if you need hugs or best wishes or congratulations, or sympathies,or just want to give somebody a slap, then consier them given.
