Hi Dior,I love a bit of glitter on my cards,I often tear some mulberry paper and put it on a card then I can't resist putting a subtle bit of glitter glue around the edges.

No I haven't had any stuff published for a while.I haven't written in to any mags for a long time.I've been doing a bit of other stuff like beading and stitching lately.

[Dior]

Well, I missed you on the card threads. Are you doing the challenge this time? I have sent a card in to the CM&P 'I want to be a Graduate' competition (for Sizzix) in the latest mag. Not expecting to win anything though. Just thought I'd get my act together and start entering things again...

[layla]

Hi,no I'm not doing the challenges this time.I may later on.I need to make lots of cards for the next stall at the school in the summer.It takes me ages to make a card,I only average about 2 an evening I really am slow.

I'm going on my lovespoon carving course this weekend.And I really want to learn crochet too.

Good luck with the competition.
