    RustyFlange - I am originally from Hinckley, so not far from Tamworth. My Mum and Dad still live in Hinckley, and last time I went down to visit my mum she took me to the Hobbycraft in Tamworth. Great cards - my favourite is the heart one - really classy. The xmas one is lovely, really original.
    Shaz-mum-of-2 - hope you have a great time.

    Yay, finally, a genuine excuse to make a card! A friend of mine who has been on IVF told me today that she is finally pregnant - hurrah! So I just had to whip something up for her...

    Shelly, I was going to ask the same question about Maggie's letters, they are fab aren't they!

    Maggie, many congrats to your friend, thats brilliant news & your card is lovely :D

    Rusty, you are being too hard on yourself, that Xmas card is lovely, where did you get the die cut shapes from? Have you tried putting the shapes onto a darker colour background card, dark green for eg? Just an idea ;) As for all your other cards they are also lovely, you are really too hard on yourself imo :p
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:

    I know Hinkley, Recently moved up to the north east from Nuneaton ... lived there for over 3 years! :)
    The Christmas one I am unsure of, they fireplace and the garland are almost a metalic kind of card so when they move they sort of look different if you see what I mean.
