    Your niece looks about 18 Ellie. Don't they realise in years to come they will want to take years off their age, not add them on. Hasn't she got beautiful eyes.

    Thanks both of you, the flowers are just a frame off the internet, you know me and printing, I love playing about.

    I am always going on (usually moaning) about paper/card stock for printing and I have the perfect card but still I buy card because I am being told this is the best for printing and stamping etc...
    I was trying to print a red dotty paper and the colour just kept fading and I suddenly realised I wasn't using my 'good' card stock and you will see from this photo the difference it makes. One is such a clear, sharp red and the other is faded and dull. Remind me, never to buy any card stock again because I have never found one that prints as beautifully as the one on the left. It even prints detailed photo's perfectly. Lecture over.

    Wow, the right card does make all the difference, doesn’t it. Lovely red colour.
    I don’t print much, except photos,

    Thank you so much for my birthday card, Susie, Elaine, Alison, and especially
    to Denise, who made it. It’s lovely. I shall treasure it.
    I’m off out for a birthday lunch with DH, so I will photo it later, so you all can see it.
    Thank you once again . XX

    Happy birthday for yesterday Ellie.. So glad you liked the card!
    Wow what a difference it makes to have the right cardstock Susie.
    I am going to make some more of those easy tree and washi tape cards shortly as I seem to have missed five cousins..whom we've just seen at the funeral of DHs aunt..and they said they haven't recieved and as I posted mine over a week ago, I knew I have messed up. Sure enough I checked my list..and they weren't on it..so now I have to remedy that! I will be using the black, silver, grey ones I think don't you?

    Here at two of the grey/ silver cards..I couldn't do black ones after all as I didn't have any of the black punched out bits left. (I had used my friends punch at the crop as I don't own it). I'd punched more than I needed so I only had a couple of blue bits left.
    I've also added another one that I made..wrong colour of course but at least it's another card made.

    Thanks Alison.

    Elaine love the blue cards, and the background on the bottom one is really nice.
    As is the bauble

    They are gorgeous cards Elaine. Any Christmas cards I make are going away for next year. Just have to make a couple and one of course is for the new baby but won't fit here and it will be a design I've used before.

    Yes Alison, I've given up buying and trying other card stock now because it doesn't matter how good everyone else thinks it is, if you haven't tried this one then you don't know what you're missing. The vibrancy of colour is staggering and the images are so clear. I have a bit in stock but will wait for the New Year to order some more. I also used to buy their photo paper but they've stopped making that so I bought the last of the stock which will see me out!
