[Little Jan]

Gill this is the card that I posted to you on the 9th, that seems to have got lost in the black hole known as royal mails sorting office. I have made another one which I will post next week once I know royal mail have stopped playing silly beggers..http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/6798/cimg1147c.th.jpg (http://img24.imageshack.us/my.php?image=cimg1147c.jpg) There was also a verse in side which is as follows

Sensible squirrel is on the beach
But today he's being silly
He's forgot to put his trousers on
So we can see his
Will he go for a swim
in the salty sea
or maybe send a postcard
to us at craft telly
I really must stop these rhymes
they are becoming a bad habit
so I'm off to have some summer fun
with my new friend messy rabbit

[Winspiration]

Oh Jan I love it - especially the pome, lol :D

It's a brilliant card - Royal Mail obviously decided to keep it for themselves :rolleyes:

Thanks for posting the pic!

[Wellington]

*applause* for that verse LJ :giggle: Lovely card.

I have mine to satincollie sat here asking to be posted but haven't been near a postbox since it was made :o

[budgie]

That is a lovely card, I must get my Messy Rabbit stash out and have a play!

[LoobyLou]

Lovely card, and as always a crafty rhyme too.

Looby

[Winspiration]

[fabyon]

oh lovely and very colourful ! I love it, x fab

[Winspiration]

Great card, Welly :sun:

Fab, you probably just need to step outside for a dip - in the rain! :grin:

[Wellington]

Ooo - I'm sure I've got that backing paper somewhere Wins...great card :up:

I'm soooo sorry it took so long to get that card in the post Satincollie, had it made a fortnight ago :o

[Winspiration]

Thanks Welly, I think the paper is from a K&Co 6 x 6 book. I have to confess to having a bit of a 'thing' about 6 x 6 cards lately :D

[satincollie]

No worries Welly it was worth the wait.
Lovely card Wins.
Gill

[LoobyLou]

Welly great funky card. I am sure I have those stickers somewhere. If I recall they are an absolute nightmare to get off the backing paper.

Made me think of a time when I could still fit into a bikini. Ahhhhhhhhhhh

Looby

[LoobyLou]

Wins, lovely bright card. You are very 'on trend' there with that lime green!

Looby

[Wellington]

Thanks Welly, I think the paper is from a K&Co 6 x 6 book.

I know the one - got mine in a set of 6 pads from QVC.

Those stickers were in danger of never being used - they're the sub-Dufex ones from QVC (by DO Crafts I think). There are also some flowers & some fish ones. I liked the idea of doing a fishy card but have never had a reason to :rolleyes:

I have used the fishy ones, and the fashion ones did a couple of birthday cards, but the others are tucked away from view, which reminds me I should fish (sorry no pun intended) them back out.

[LoobyLou]

I received my July swap from RW today. A vision of loveliness in soft subtle pink and the cutest little stickers on it. Thank you Joan.

[LoobyLou]

I'd just like to fit into a bikini - never mind the weather!

Me too!! Although I don't think I should be too keen on freezing whilst in said bikini, the phrase 'chapel hat pegs' springs to mind.

Great card Ribbons.
