    Me too, probably longer than that and then I wouldn't end up using them!

    Lovely card Elaine, I do love those stitched effect dies, who are they made by? How exciting for your friends to have their first grand daughter.

    They are Sizzix.. I bought them through a Stampin Up demonstrator. You get squares, circles..and ovals I think. I'll check tomorrow.

    Thanks Elaine, I always think they give such a lovely finishing touch to any design.

    When you are next here Denise, W.H. Smith's still sell airmail paper and envelopes, I buy it for my neighbour who is still a huge letter writer. Can you not order it online from somewhere?

    Such a lovely card Ellie and I really love the pearls along the bottom, pretty embossing folder too.

    I've given up on the cards I made earlier in the week, I just wasn't happy with them. I do this all the time. In the end I've cheated a reused a design from a while ago. One is in lilac for a birthday and one is in pink for an anniversary so I'll post the pink one even though it doesn't have mint green and even though I've probably posted it somewhere before.

    I've left the message for the anniversary for the inside, sorry I've used this design before but I've got to get back to sorting through the wedding scrapbook photo's, there's only about 700 so far, but still more coming in!

    It's still beautiful Susie, even if you have used it before.
    Lovely die cut and gorgeous little butterflies.
    You always use such intricate embellishments.
    Really pretty.

    How do you sort out over 700 photos!!! Mind blowing !
    I think I have about 6 of my wedding, and they are fuzzy

    Thanks Ellie, that die cut is so useful it is a Spellbinders one but, you can understand why I want to get back to the photo's, it is a nightmare. Also, I keep seeing people on the photo's who were taking photo's and they haven't sent them to the bride so there could be other good photo's out there that we haven't even seen yet.

    In my defence, I did use a different background paper when I made the pink card last time. Talk about clutching at straws.

    Thanks Denise and yes it is so easy just to snap away these days so it is a case of sorting the wheat from the chaff so to speak. There are lots of lovely photo's but some of them are from phones so they aren't capable of being enlarged without pixellating. Other phones have good size files but not necessarily the photo's you want to use.

    Lovely cards ladies. Susie, I still haven't finished with both my sons wedding photos, think we had over 1000 for each ! I need a I get on with my holiday photos but I hate the sorting out of them when there are so many
    I have grabbed some papers to have which are closest to this mess onthes colours, think I have gone more aqua than mint but here's a card I made for DIL ...

    That is a very pretty card Alison, I love all the butterflies so beautifully placed too.

    Each day now I am hearing of more and more photo's which we haven't seen yet of this wedding. I want to wait until I have them all just in case I miss a fantastic photo and can't find a place to slot it in later. Still, I have more cards to make and I want to start knitting a baby matinee coat, so plenty of other things to get on with and I can still sort other wedding LO's out. This is definitely going to be a couple of scrapbooks the way it is going. I hope I don't hit the 1000 mark though.
