    I'd love to do a challenge with that topic dragonllew but being on a diet means I have to forgo the cakes (blast!) so, as this challenge will take us into April how about......

    Easter (any colours) or if you don't fancy that perhaps a green and yellow colour combination.

    Lets see your easter chickies, your bunnies or your coloured eggs, absolutely anything Easterishy! (is that a word????)

    Should I ever win, I might do a cake thing. By which I mean eat one to celebrate :rotfl:

    Looking forward to this Easter challenge.

    I have boggled something else, but it's not cards. And for those who don't know what's wrong with the card in the previous boggle post - the blue bit at the bottom was originally placed on at a jaunty angle, which looked ok before I stuck it down, But I didn't like it so I took it off, tore it in the process and broke the tail off a seahorse. But I kinda smoothed it down a little bit, managed to get most of the bits of blue that had stayed stuck to the card off, and just placed it in a straight line, before taking the pic and globbing it.

    Its amazing what a bit of clever photography can do.

    I think i'd best go to bed now, otherwise my lost hour will catch up with me about 2.30 tomorrow afternoon.

    Hi everyone, it's been an age since I last posted here, I think it was around Christmas.

    I have been hanging out on the cross stitch thread for the past couple of months, as I took up that again, however, around the same time I got some really bad news, so I wasn't really in any mood for card making these past few weeks....

    Anyways, I'm rambling.
    But I am back to card making again, and I have just put my newest card on my 'you know what'. Also there is a short explanation there as to why I have been 'away', for those of you who do not follow the cross stitch thread.

    Will be posting a lot more over the next few days, so I will be back soon!
