    Oh there are some wonderful cards, and they look lovely

    just finished work till tue, so i'm of to do a quick tidy up, then after tea going to make a start on my card
  • hey well done they look great. especially the anniversary one. ive been crafting for 3 years but never seen anything with the words cut out the side! but heres a wee tip for using up scraps of paper or whatever. find a regular bookmark to use as a template, draw round that on to the back of any papers you have left over, (hand made papers are especially nice) cut it out and stick on cardboard. cut that out, use hole punch to punch one hole in the top, thread through some string or ribbon and tie, there you have some freebie gifts - hand made bookmarks! u can do the same for gift tags as well.

    good luck and enjoy the crafting!

    Sorry if I'm being a bit dense but what do you mean 'love all'? Like valentines?

    The theme is Champagne and cream but it looked very pale and uninteresting so used a bit of bronze backing paper to hopefully give it a lift.

    All responses Good or bad gratefully received.

    Regards
