ive been away on holiday so havent been online much but tonight ive trawled through all the posts, lovely they are as well.

ive been card making and scrapbooking for a while now and ,although ive gathered mucho stuff i never buy any of the expensive things they all seem to talk about on other craft sites so here is wonderful as i know others love the pound shops as much as i do and i must admit ive bought loads of my crafting things from them.in fact some of the scrapbooking kits they have been selling are exactly the same as being sold by the company "mic" and have even been sold on one of the 2 craft shopping channels -cant remember which one-for way much more than the obligatory £1 .

ive never taken any photos of any cards ive made but would like to join you from time to time(im away every other week/weekend) in the challenges-great idea!!

someone was asking re free stuff to use so below are a selection of the sites i use so hope the links all work ,if they dont let me know and i will try and sort it out but not being technically minded it may not work lol

This site is for buying papers to download but they do freebies as well (change all the time too!). I haven't used it myself but a couple of my friends use this site all the time for freebie background papers...

Hi Polly, wasn't expecting you to be up! I've just got back from a fab Osmonds Concert in very rainy Birmingham - it was indoors tho'! That looks a great card, very soppy and lovey dovey I'm sure the receipient(s) will love it! :T :T

couldnt settle when i went to bed so got up for a hot drink and was bored so decided to post a pic and get feed back on my card :rotfl: was the concert good ?

I was just off to bed then but just had a quick look before I went up - yes the concert was brilliant! Hubby took me, but there were'nt many men though, just loads of women in their 40's! Hope you manage to get to sleep soon... goodnight...
