hi everyone, thankyou to all of you that are helping me with my digital stamp sample cards, i thought i should have a go myself aswell i no it sounds bad but im more of a sketcher/painter than a cardmaker (although after this go i see how it is additive) anyway i didnt have no cards so it is done on 6x6 card stock as a mock card, i would be very greatful if you lovely ladies would have a quick peek and let me no if it looks ok, its just to put as an example on my digital stamp listing. heres a link to flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/clairsminis/5401815981/ thankyou. xxxx

It looks fab - the stamp is lovely as well!!

Evening! Just typed a long message and lost it somehow. Oh bother or words to that effect. Will try again. First of all thanks for all the tooth-healing wishes. Not too bad at all today although the hole feels enormous. Thanks also for all the freebie links etc which I've bookmarked for later.

flourgirl - congrats on becoming a great aunt and great that the wedding invites going well.
Louby - fab news about your niece, what a huge relief for you all.
viclspence - sorry your physio didn't go too well, hope next one is better. Hope you won't have to wait too long for your new car.
Melissa - please don't put off the dentist, that's what I did and look where that ended up.
jowri - That's appalling about your ring - make sure you chew a few ears tomorrow. How are you finding the punch? I got one yesterday but finding it a bit awkward because of my (arthritic) hands. I'll have another go tomorrow.
Rusty - I'll watch WL tommorrow. Hope your MIL did well.
Rainmac - Plenty of ironing here if you've got any energy left. Hope your Mum's dental work goes OK.
Marg - I think I'd have had to tell DH where his mop could go. Don't get doing too much light housework.
Mary-op - Only 6 cards? That's major output as far as I'm concerned. Hope you find your papers soon. I had a tidy up and 'lost' everything. GL for the hospital appointments this week.
TomsMom - Lovely birthday cards you received. Sorry but I cant help with either of those images you're after.

Think that's more or less what I wrote before. Off for some blog hopping now.

It's very sweet. I am still planning the card with the stamp you were kind enough to let me have. Also thinking about the water challenge.

I've done the Black Ball Card. It's in the usual place.

I think this was posted before somewhere on MSE but it might have been missed by people. Cath Kidston has some digital wallpapers for free download and they print off nicely for backing papers.

Huge 'thank you's' PONR for the link, it's made me have a thinkie about gift cards and tags.

Off to check the rest of the posts.

Morning all, thought I'd get on early before the school run - dont know where the weekend has gone!!! I've blogged and think I've commented on blogs but didnt get chance to come on here:o so missed the last few pages - sorry.

Hope all poorlies are on the mend.
marg - hope you are doing ok
tomsmum- ooh hope it wasnt me I just put a stamp on at home - I've got a couple of others to go so will double check them at the post office just to be sure.
£62 for a card - Bevs cards are beautiful though but...mind just think of the stash you could buy:D

Thank you for all your wishs for the funeral, OH's cousin was a smashing chap who adored all his family and it's so sad that a really nice person should go before some of those nasty people that exist forever. Huge funeral with over 100 people there. It was good to see all of OH's extended family that we haven't seen for a few years and its sad that we meet under those circumstances. Oh asked that we all meet in the summer at our house, :eek: well, thats nearly thirty people inc, little ones for a barbie. Should be fun in our little house

If it brightens up a tiny tad I should be able to get some pictures taken of the recent cards made and get them on the glob 18 down (US card swap time) and several Red Hat birthdays.

Huge thanks coming your way Georgiegirl, the image of the granny on the bike will be brilliant for my Hatter chums

Sounds like you're going to well and truly have your hands full with 30 people, you'll need an extra special cake to dive into after that

We have a teeny bit of sun here, yippie but it is freezing cold. I am headed back to preschool in half an hour or so to help out with the annual walk to the post office to buy stamps and post letters. DS2 is sending a letter to DS1, so sweet :happyhear

Have you seen all the pre-order paper pads at Crafty Emma's? A few sort of lurched towards me shouting BUY ME, BUY ME so I sort of did
