Lovely cards everyone! Polly love your ATCs and that anniversary card is really stunning. Looks like it took a VERY long time to make!!!

Rusty, you can use normal card and just cut/fold to shape.

I have ideas for this weeks challenge (normally I wouldn't join in with anything like that) Can I just use normal card to make a different shaped one or would I need something stronger?

Thanks Rainmac your right it did take a very long time to make :rotfl: :rotfl: but the end result is worth it me thinks and abusybee likes it so im happy i used my crafters companion board thats how i got the oval and all the scoring perfect it would have been very difficult without the board.

Abusybee - great card, love the colours.
Rainmac - my Mum's quite crafty herself - she does a lot of tapestry projects at the minute, she's really the only one that's interested in my card making.
Mary43 - lovely card- very opulent!
Polly - great ATCs - my favourite is the flowery one.
Krystaltips - still no sign of my free gift, I think I'll email them again. Looks like a lovely set.
Polly - really beautiful card - you can really see that a lot of work went into it.

Polly has asked me to post this weeks challenge and it is.... wait for it.....

Shaped cards-this means any shape that is different from the normal rectangle, square shape. Heart shape, round shape, cut it any shape you want, at an angle, wavy, whatever you fancy. Or like a few pages back, that lovely baby dress shape (sorry can't remember who made it)

have fun, looking forward to seeing all your cards, hmmm thinking what can I do?

Hi this is this weeks challenge i asked mumoftwo to set it this week xxxx
