    I'm looking for some suggestions. I'm making a box but I need to edge it. The last one i did was for a girl so I could use my MS lace punch but I don't think I can get away with that. Don't want to make it a plain edge - do you think a scalloped edge would work.. I've got scalloped scissors I could use. Oh should say it's for a baby.

    Scallop edge sounds lovely :)

    Artydoll, your card is stunning x

    Congratulations to the winner :j Thanks for a fab challenge dragonllew x

    We've been to a park all day today, kiddies are shattered :beer: :p. I've bought myself a bar of Galaxy Bubbles to enjoy tonight with a cuppa and hopefully some crafting. My nan is wanting to go back to her flat tomorrow but there is no help in place yet. My aunt says she will pop in once a day but she needs so much more help than that but my aunt says it's not required and for my mum to butt out :( :mad:

    Woo Hoo! Fab winning card Well Done!

    rainmac - sorry to hear that your Mum & Aunt don't see eye to eye about your Nan - I would think some attention more than once a day would be needed, certainly, in the first instance. ((Hugs))

    PepPop - forgot to say glad you're back in circulation. Not sorted the lists yet been a bit busy since we got back on Saturday and got to try & make a couple of cards today - hate doing the compulsory ones & Mojo's gone again. :(

    My aunt is a hard woman Marg, that's the nicest thing I can say about her :( Well, my mum and dad were going to take my nan home today but she has had a 'turn' this morning so my mum has tucked her into bed and called the doctor. Someone will be coming out to see her this afternoon. My mum would like my nan to stay and find a suitable home local to where my mum and dad are so she can be looked after 24x7. She has now been staying at my mum and dad's for nearly a month and they are wrecks, not sleeping properly or going out for fear of leaving her. It is all heartbreaking, my nan has no idea who my children are now and trying to explain anything to a 7 year old and a 4 year old is so difficult.

    OMG, have checked your post dragonllew! So shocked that I won the first one I enter! Feel a bit undeserving compared to some of the lovely stuff you all make on here. Going to have a good think for a challenge, never done anything like this before. When does it have to be decided by? Can it be any topic? What sort of things do you have as prizes? Lol sorry for all the questions :o

    Congrats to the other MSE member who has won a challenge this week!
