    :rotfl: That's so funny (that you thought I wrote them), I didn't write them (sorry to disappoint!), just found them on internet ;)

    Hope I can help with some of these...
    Baskets with the blackboards are from Matalan, £3 and come in a few colours.
    The cupcake cases are from Baking Frenzy on ebay (the checked ones aren't in the shop at the moment). I can't get two flannels to fit them properly but super-duper Rusty can do it.
    I made the blackboard hearts using MDF heart shapes from this ebay seller (got door hangers from here too) and painting them with blackboard paint from Wickes.

    HTH ;)

    Thanks hun ;) and yes you can become my best friend on one condition ... that I get a lovely pressy aswell :rotfl::rotfl:

    The verses are great, it was me asking ;) Thanks.

    Can I ask what snowman soup is? I gather hot chocky and marshmallows?? I am interested as I may change what I do with my cups (disney ones for stockings) and could do same for OH in his NUFC box or something?

    No probs, what would you like :p

    Snowman soup is pretty much what you said. I'm going to put hot choc powder into a cellophane cone. Put that cone into another cone and pack top with mini marshmallows (& maybe chunks of chocolate?). Tie with a candy cane and the instruction label. Got my labels and cello cone idea from this site posted by candy on another thread. Ordered the cello cones from ebay today, £2.20 for 15 inc p&p.
