None yet! Starting to give our postie looks when only junk mail drops on my doormat!

Got lots to to do ATM anyway, as long as I haven't been forgotten!

Thank you thank you thank you for the wire hearts- they were really lovely! I will use one on a scrapbook page I am doing for a friend on homeymoon.

I have had one parcel- Yorkigirl, my card is made and my pic with Aunty Quated ready to go (whilst I sort out internet problem). Feel free to post.

Glad they were of use Punnet. I gave up on them for my invites, just didn't have the time to sit and make 120 of them!! I've simplified the design and using tiny little daisy embellishment instead.
I will get some more hearts made up when the challenge is over.

Oh sorry!!! What do I know im just a dumb blonde bird!!!!!

Dingle · 13/04/2005 12:20

How is everyone doing? My postman is in danger of being attacked soon. I might have to go out and buy a vicious dog!

kkgirl · 13/04/2005 13:15

I've been having trouble trying to take a decent picture of the B&P's. AQ usually posts it onto the site for me. Once I have done this, I can send them out.
Can anyone tell me how to put them on?

AuntyQuated · 13/04/2005 13:44

i can do it kkgirl, don't worry.
if you can't get the photo done just pop a note in with the B&P asking the receipient to take a pic before before they use them.

YG, HM, did you receive your B&P?

Dingle · 13/04/2005 13:52

kkgirl, are you sending to me? If you are, it's no problem for me to take the pic when I get the bits, I'll upload the pic as well when the other cc has recieved hers.

kkgirl · 13/04/2005 13:56

Dingle

Could you, that would be brilliant. DH said he would help me last night, and then he worked until 9 and had some job applications to do.
Tonight I have some bad news to break to him, so don't want to worry him with this.
I will package the bits up and go out and post them now.
My B&P's are a bit naff, I don't find this theme too easy, but hopefully you will be able to do something with them.

Thanks a lot, its really kind of you.

Dingle · 13/04/2005 14:01

kkgirl, really not a problem. I hope you are OK! (re; bad news)

I struggled too. It's difficult thinking of what to use so that someone else can hopefully use it in a diirefent way. I made up a few, but on looking at the B & Ps, I couldn't hink of how else they would be used!

Punnet · 13/04/2005 14:14

Same here: i liked the bits I had, but I don't think I gave enough thought to how they could be used differently.

Sorry!

Hope the news isn't too bad and that you're ok.

kkgirl · 13/04/2005 14:38

Thanks girls

When I say its bad news, I don't mean anything serious, life threatening. (Just looked back as what I posted).
DH was caught speeding, it was his own fault, but I was hoping it wouldn't go to court, would rather pay full fine and him lose points, than him be banned, he needs to drive for his job.
I think he will be devastated for one silly mistake, neither of us have ever been in trouble in own lives, so its stressing me.
Anyway thanks for your help.

Hi,AuntyQ I've added some more pics of my cards to an album on the group.I had to make another album,still under mumsnet,as it wouldn't upload any into my album I don't know why.Just to let you know incase you need to make them smaller.Thanks for doing it.The cards I put in are a bit bigger size blanks than the first lot and my new designs.I might name them sometime too.Can't wait to see the challenge ones.

YG - you only need a tiny hole for the brads..if you haven't got a punch small enough, use a craft knife and mark a tiny cross on the card, the brad should go thro' that wihtout bending the card.

layla - thank you so much for the card and parcel. i will email you. i have got rid of the big pics on Yahoo and copied them all into your fisrt album, so you can delete the second if i have moved them all properly...i did it in a rush so it may be best if you check, in fact it loooks like i moved one twice!

i will put up pic of my B&P too

tiptop · 13/04/2005 18:56

Sorry to hijack the thread but please could you post a link to the place where you have cards on view? I looked at them the other day when the thread was on Active convos and tried then, later, to find them again (stupidly hadn't saved thread on threads I'm watching) and I couldn't find the original thread. I looked in various places and then gave up. Thanks!

P.S. Cards were lovely, btw!

Dingle · 13/04/2005 19:03

I'll find it for you tiptop.
