no dolls to work on, no cards to do either. not had inspirations for scrapping lately. not got any materials to make doll outfits. waiting for trimmings to arrive to do hair barrettes.

just want a doll to work on. i sold 4 at the weekend, so shelves are looking empty and my bank balence is looking better lol.

Have you done your Christmas cards yet? Can't do them too early you know (said in anoraky voice}.

I'm slowly making my 98 year old grandmother a box of cards as her Christmas present so she doesn't have to ask my mum to buy her any throughout the year. Keeps my fingers busy and it's a cheap present!

Is the Great Grand Dragon really 98, soupy ? Blimey, that's a great age. Is she in fine fettle ? It's amazing for your children to have known their great Grandma !

She is indeed 98 . 99 next March in fact. Mentally sound but physically frail. She's got 5 great grandchildren, inumerable great great nieces/nephews and a great great great neice/nephew due next year.

A veritable matriarch.

Will be fun when she gets her letter from the Queen in the not too distant future ! And it's fab her marbles are intact, though I know frailty is none too funny either, can make the slightest knocks terrible bruises and the slightest bad movement a nasty fall.

Anyway, hope she enjoys your card set, it's a lovely idea.
