Well, are any of you up for it? I don't normally send Easter Cards but it seems that we are all in the doldrums at the moment and need something to cheer us up

I would love to organise it.

However, I have deleted emails - all of them and now I don't have pootlepod, Soapbox or Peachyclairs email addys. I am soooo sorry.Blush If anyone can supply these if they have them or if any of you three come on here today, can you email me on

Right I have mailed those of you whose email addresses I have. I have done this challenge slightly differently as I have paired people up instead of doing it the correct way as stated in the MN Challenge manual. Ok this was a mistake but it will be interesting . I hope everyone enjoys the challenge.

Not a problem, I don't think I've ever been paired with my swapee before so should be fun Grin

(REMINDER: Start of May I'll start to take names etc for a craft goodie swap. Advance warning so no-one says they're too busy OK? Broke I'll understand Wink- timed it exactly to fit in with my student loan)

UCM · 21/03/2006 17:00

Well, I didn't have anyone to pair with and then Dior got greedy and wanted 2 cards, so I made mine this morning and I have to say I am very glad I did, cos I had a bit of a brainwave. So thank you Dior. You inspired me and your b&ps are on their way Grin

ummmm.....I've written my swop address down. that's a start isn't it? Blush

Whizzz · 23/03/2006 17:42

I should get my B&P posted tomorrow if I get myself into gear Smile

UCM - have you paired people up so that the person I am sending to, is sending me stuff??

UCM · 23/03/2006 18:21

Errrr.....Yes, hope that's ok. It was my first try at organising. I was telling JM and she very kindly pointed out that isn't how it's done. I panicked she calmly said, why don't you say you wanted to try something different. But I can't lie. I ballsed it up Grin. Still get a swap though.....

'Got greedy' Shock...Wink I think you mean that I asked why there were not 2 swappees this time...you could have just come clean and admitted your HUUUUUGGGGGEEEE cock_up! Grin

In fact, talking of cock-ups, I thought we had agreed to do a child's card Blush...so Whizz and UCM have appropriate B&Ps...sorry guys! Sent today though, so should be with you tomorrow.

Yorkiegirl · 23/03/2006 22:24

it is a child's card isn't it?

Dior · 23/03/2006 22:27

Phew! - so why is it called the Easter challenge?

Yorkiegirl · 23/03/2006 22:30

UCM suggested easter but most people don't do easter cards.

UCM · 23/03/2006 23:31

Yes it's a childs card, Boy or Girl

kickassangel · 24/03/2006 17:03

put my stuff in the post last night, so should have gone to pootlepod today - however, our village post is very erratic, so let me know if you don't get it & I'll send more!

PeachyClair · 24/03/2006 17:29

Aq has received her stuff from me

Whizzz · 24/03/2006 17:52

Dior - just realised that there is something inside the tin foil ! I've been sat here pondering what to make from the tin foil Grin

UCM · 24/03/2006 22:59

UCM · 24/03/2006 23:32
