    Loving your card Savvy, good idea to think in advance like that. We did a similar idea on the sand in Cyprus. Very useful things sand & snow! :D

    Don't forget you lot, Polly has got until Sunday to do her card so lay off the pressure!:D I believe mine was on here at 5.45pm last Sunday!:D

    PS. I WANT to buy all those pretty ribbons in that Huggies box so maybe its not so MSE after all! :rotfl:

    Good news Polly - Well Done! :T Look forward to seeing them.

    I'll be doing mine tonight hopefully (hubby at samba on Thursdays). I think we should 'pace' our cards out anyway otherwise we'll have nothing to look at some days! (Thats my excuse and I'm sticking with it! :p:D )

    Well I'd like the challenge to be 'Cards for Men' as I have to make 2 for birthdays in May and I need inspiration! LOL!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!
