Sounds like a major trip Ellie!!

I am working on another yellow card, hopefully it will come out right and then I can share it...... :-) In the meantime I have popped my wedding anniversary card on the IMT thread. We had a lovely time in Oxford, though I walked my feet off going around Blenheim Palace and gardens on Friday and wasn't up to any more walking on the Saturday!! The best part was having Prosecco out of mugs because the hotel room only had those plastic cups instead of glasses, pouring out of a bottle into those would have tipped them over!!

Wow Ellie, that's a long trip, bet it will be fantastic though.

I'm glad you had such a good time Wendy - Prosecco out of anything is good!

[RED HEAD]

Glad that you had a good time Wendy. I've just looked at your card. Love the
colours, and that heart is lovely. As for the Happy Anniversary die, all I
can say is " She made me buy it also". and I think you know who I mean!!

Can I help it if you are all weak willed???

[Susie.A]

I have three Mother's Day cards to make by tomorrow and can't think of anything. I have a pile of bits which I've either die cut or stamped or punched out but nothing is coming together. I think this cold I have is blocking my thought processes completely.

[RED HEAD]

Have you looked on Pinterest for inspiration. Or on the threads on here?
Hope you get rid of your cold soon

I've had a look back at cards that I've only made once and I've got most cut and ready to start sticking together, then it's the inserts which take a while. I found one which I liked but have no idea who I sent it to. I posted it on UKS last October but don't seem to have birthday or event that corresponds with that time, very strange and very annoying, just wish I could remember who received it.

Here's another from me. I was a bit lazy with it, so I'm not 100% pleased with it, I got the box proportions all wrong really. Must try harder !

[RED HEAD]

' a bit lazy'?????? I don't think so. There's a tremendous amount of work gone into your fab creation Alison.

[Susie.A]

Wow, you call that being lazy!!! It is gorgeous Alison, I love it.

[alison 2]

the laziness was the fact that I didn't raise the flowers etc a little higher. It looks ok from the angle I took the photo, but not so good face on as the flowers are all quite low
The flowers are from a long Sizzix die, and the bird and leaves are a stampin up punch
