Thank you so much for your lovely ATC, it was gorgeous, as was the little backing envelope type thing LOL, was truly lovely. How did you do it? Is the back ground stamping or paper? and the embellishments were lovely did you make them?

Tina I posted your atc today , thought i had posted it already but found it in my bag yesterday. Sorry.

That's okay 'cos I'm a twit and haven't even posted yours yet . It'll be in the post tomorrow!

Thank you, Emma. My 1st go at stamping (well, not the 1st - had to do it about 8 times cos couldn't get stamps in right spot! Over and over again. Ok, tho - cut up all those attempts and turned em into little pennants. Paper flags anyone?!?). Did do the stamping onto card (can I hear a "Yay! She finally got out some stamps and stamped. At last!"). Didn't make the metal flowers - Karen Foster brads 50% off. Got a pile of them - can send you some. Tried to use them all the way across but made it the HEAVIEST ATC in history so had to sneak into Kate's room and pinch a punch. Punching much easier than stamping - except kept scaring the puppy and making her jump!

Awww - try to pack up my ATC's like little packages/gifts. Makes me happy.
AWWW -sad, but true!

Kate, thanks for the fabby ATC, hun. It's lovely.
I'll get a piccie up asap.

thanks Kim. Have got workshop to sort and then will get ATCs out. Its not fair these days I get no crafting time at weekends...think I might have to put foot down and have a sulk...then I could disappear for a couple of hours each sunday LOL

Thank you Lorraine for your gorgeous ATC though didn't even know it was in with the card front swap as it kinda blended in and looked like it was a part of it

Well, you told me to put it in with it, lol.

Thank you Tina your beautiful atc arrived on friday , it is very pretty.

ATC in the post today to you Kim. Am hoping it gets to you ok, just realised I didn't write my usual corner bit of 'craft items'.

Did you ever get the christmas card. I found the foto I took of it the other day. Will upload when I can.

Tina did you recieve the atc I finally remembered to post??

I did, and I thought I had thanked you, sorry! Probably did, but in the wrong place

no karin never got christmas card.

look forward to atc .
got one yesterday but thought it was from kate ,got a cat on it , will check it when i go downstairs as thats where it is

karin its arrived thank you ,another fab one for my folder ,dont know if karin realised but its a flower cut out of newspaper or book pages that are all about beer and pubs ...you trying to tell me something !!
love the inking and the string and button centrepiece ..very arty !!

LOL Kim, no I never realised, freudian or wot eh?????

I had to look carefully for large bits of printing in the newspaper so i could cut the flower out. I quite liked the inking of these, distress inks.

Glad you liked it. Will put up pic of xmas card. So annoyed it never arrived, and i always put my address label on the back too.

thats ok Tina as long as it got there.
