So typical of Royal Mail!!

Hmm not sure about the flowers then, have you tried colouring some you already have that you don't need/use in with promarkers, copics or inkpads? That might work

The trouble with the envelopes they are smaller than normal DL's

The roses are hard to colour with copics or promarkers, I did ink some up on a card recently they were white and I inked up the edges with a brown ink pad which was a lovely effect. I will find some, thankyou.
Sorry I didn't see your problem, I understand now

Oh Rusty, so sorry some *bleep* broke into your car :mad: Have you had a peek at Crafty Emma's Store for flowers, not sure if she has the size you are after but may be worth a looksee?

What a gorgeous card artydoll and a wonderful way to use ribbon

CT, I have a card on my blog for your flowers challenge, it's in the bottom photo, bottom row in the middle

Gemm, so sorry to hear about your poor mum Hope she is ok and not in too much pain xxx

Kms, I too would use normal DL envelopes from the supermarket, much easier than trying to make some - sorry just seen your post above x

Busy bee you are, so glad you liked the squares your cards are always beautiful and these are too!! Will look at crafty emma's, never thought of their! thanks xx

I have done a really scary thing today, cleaned out the freezer and cupboards and made a food inventory :eek::eek::eek: My DH is thinking about stopping my housekeeping for the next 12 months until we have eaten everything up!! I have about 2 years worth of toiletries in my wardrobe and my Mum has rung today to say she over bought on toiletries for christmas and there is a full carrier bag waiting for me at their house:eek: I should be britains cleanest person :rotfl:

They are secretely trying to tell you that you smell :rotfl: only joking xxx

Hi everyone, it seems ages since I was last on here. Nasty horrible lurgy infection at last seems to be getting a bit better. Geez, it's been rough! At least I can eat now so it will be nice to have a change from soup, rice pud and mashed potato as long as I have the strength to cook something. Still have very tight/sore chest/throat so not venturing out into the cold yet as it starts coughing fits still but hopefully by the end of the week I can get out again. What with the snow/ice before Christmas then this darned virus I realised I haven't been out of the house since about 18 December, going stir crazy here!

Too many pages to catch up on since I was last here so sending everyone big hugs, get well wishes where needed, congrats on any achievements and welcome to any newbies. Sorry to generalise, I hope to be back in the swing of things soon.

Fab controller card you have made - I love it!

Sorry about your car stereo - just don't understand why people do stuff like that. Hope you sort it out with the insurance if you are claiming.

Viclspence - Did A & E say the whiplash was from the bump in your car and not just your sneezing? Sounds painful either way (hugs)

Yes, they said it was from the car crash! Still trying to sort out my hire car as i'm using the bus!:mad:

Thanks to so many people entering my flower challenge, I am thrilled to have had 11 entries so far, and I only set it on Saturday.

Received my LOTV die cuts today, so will hopefully managed to make a couple of cards tonight using them.

I've got 40 cards now to give to my friend to try and sell for me tomorrow, so have my fingers crossed that the majority of them will get sold, and that will pay some more towards off towards Florida.

Hugs to anyone that needs them - it has got really cold here today, so wondering whether we are in store for some more snow

:wave: TomsMum - so glad to see you posting - I was about to send a search party :rotfl:seriously, I'm pleased you are feeling better. 18th December:eek: even I'd get fed up after that long & I never want to go out.

Fabulous cards rainmac.
