    Been to 2 Tescos to get the Elizabeth Shaw mints on BOGOF. I could only find the dark chocolate mint ones, and the dark chocolate orange ones. Really wanted the milk ones in the silver wrappers but couldn't find them anywhere in either of the shops. Has anyone else managed to get the milk ones yet?

    Great cards Helen - the snowflake one is really simple but elegant.

    Thanks so much for sharing your fab ideas.

    Thank you for all your help so far, lol. I have finally managed to get photo's sorted i think, sorry if they turn out wrong.

    I don't think this is too bad for first ever attempt at crafty bits (except for toddler standard!) My snowman soups are couple/family ones. Going to make single serving ones with sachets as one serving seemed very small in cone.
