Numpty (for those of you south of the border) is a term used here in Scotland for someone who is an idiot. This term appears to apply to me I have just finished making a card Really happy with the result stood back to admire it and.... I've made it upside down. This isnt the first time. I am officaily a numpty.:D

Humpty Numpty sat on a wall
Humpty Numpty had a great fall
all the King's horse and all the King's men
Couldn't turn Numpty's card the right way up again.....
do what I would do hon, chop the back off and mount the whole lot on the front of another card..... solved

Sugarplum, I'm very often a numpty and live well south of the border :) Didn't realise that the word was Scottish in origin - my team always laugh when I say I've been a numpty!

I'm often a numpty, and worse!
We call these Aussie cards and that's where they go, to friends down-under :)
Meant to say (so I'm editing) Love the card. I didn't pre-order this time cos I wasn't sure of the angel stamp, you are persuading me that I was wrong.
