Well done you. I'm OK on boys cards but mens cards are so tricky !
A Sizzix is great! I'm seeing how many variations I can come up with using the Sizzix body. I have just made a cool pirate on a desert island !! Grin

well done jenk!

it is really easy to put pics onto yahoo,

\link{http://uk.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/mumsnetcrafters/spmkd/782d?m=a&c=Jenk1\then clcik here and clcik on browse to find the pic on your PC} then clcik upload. it does take a while to load each one, and I'd only do 3 at a time, at the most. don't panic if you wait a few minutes. then cross your fingers and your pics should be there.

if that fails email them to me. Smile

well they definitly aren't there. Sad

if they upload successfully it should take you to your album automatically where you should be able to see them.

try one more and if it doesn't work you can email them to me. auntyquated at yahoo dot co dot uk

can i ask a question? - to anyone who knows more about making cards than i do - when you have borders (sometimes several layers) around an image, are you cutting them with ruler & blade, or do you have a machine to do it? i must be monumentally untidy, 'cos i can never get my things to look this good - blades always seem to go blunt, rulers slip etc.
cards look good jenk.
