    A little bird has just told me a certain card is waiting for me at home :j:j:j Can't wait to get home and open it!

    I thought the plan was to post pictures in a couple of days when everyone has received theirs? Or am I making that up?

    Made a start on the second door sign last night, one letter out of six done so hopefully will finish it by the end of the week and can get going on Mum's Christmas stitch.

    Am going to brave the shops after work so not sure if I'll get any done tonight but will try and be disciplined and get a quick half hour or so in before I go out :T

    Great framing JCS1, you've been busy! And can't wait to see your glow-in-the-dark picture Chicky, I'd never heard of threads that do that!

    Hope you're all keeping warm, especially you Ruth_honey! Don't be wandering around with wet hair after your aerobics :p I'm sure you'll be fine otherwise though, just take it at your own pace and don't push yourself too hard.

    I received my card today! It was my first christmas card :) (well, another one arrived at the same time but I deliberatey opened the exchange card first so it would be my first :D) I have taken a picture already and post it when everyone is posting pics.

    I feel bad for missing the post now :o ...my person is still waiting I bet :(

    I thought this too..maybe Thursday or Friday?
  • firefly - thank you so much for my very pretty card. It is standing on my mantlepiece already and the sun is shining on the sparkly fabric and beads. :)

    Stitcher - I don't think I have ever stitched around the edges of fabric :o - maybe I've just been lucky :D

    chicky - love dino :). Bet the little ones will love the glow in the dark bits.

    maria - so pleased you like your card. Hope you have a successful trip to HC.

    JCS1 - love your framed pics. :T

    Ruth_honey - good luck with Mum's card and the metallics :eek::D

    sk00bie - I thought we were waiting a few days before we post pics of our cards (unless I'm making it up too) :D but I cannot remember the exact day. :o

    Take care everyone

    ps Ruth_honey. I cannot believe the cheek of that woman having a go at you for giving your number to you DH in order to arrange to pick up his property! The nerve! I would say that being in possesion of his goods gives him the right to contact her. You will definitely be better without that! Hope you feel better after your nice bath. I'm sure you are feeling a bit :( because of all of this business because even if you know you are in the right and she is wrong..it is still sad to fall out with a friend. xx

    Dragon-thanks for the pot of gold poem. I used it on my labels. I am really looking forward to giving these out at Christmas.

    Oooh!! It was only an idea (feels stunned that you are using it!)
