I love the dog and the mechanic especially in Aussiestitchers cards and the bling/satin effects are wonderful in Slinky's.

They're all great Slinky, but I think the campagne glasses are particularly festive!

Of course Elaine - they will make beautiful cards. We're going to have a wonderful selection of cards for this round I think.

Mags and Rosemary, just to let you know I've safely received your lovely stitching today. I'll make them into cards this weekend (getting quite a pile now :D :D ).

Have either of you and Serinde got any preference for greetings to be printed on your cards? If so, please let me know. Otherwise I'll make it a mixture of Happy Birthday, Congratulations, Thank You, blank (no greeting) etc

Glad that they have arrived. I did neutral ones on purpose because I thought that then they could fill in any gaps that appear in the pile so feel free to put whatever greetings on them that you feel is needed.

If anymore are needed I will happily complete some more, makes a nice change from larger projects.

Glad it arrive safely, Susan. As for greeting, I don't have any preference. Though I am a great one for buying blanks as they can 'do' for a lot of situations. I will leave it up to you. :wub:

I thought of the elephants as more in the young person's birthday department, but whatever you need is fine with me.

I tend to leave mine blank so then the person that buys them can use them for any occasion.

Thank you :oops: My pleasure.

(The cards are blank btw, but I don't have any of those natty little stitckers to put on the cellophane sleeve saying that.)

Oh those are lovely Jilly! :applesauce: :applesauce:
I really like them.

I've done mine, but I couldn't check the sizes for Susan's cards with the forum being down, so I hope they'll fit! I'm going to measure them later, can't remember the size now! :doh:

Jilly those are so cute. I love the little dragon.

I am still trying to find a company that will send me the plastic covers. There are lots of companies out there but most all only ship in bulk and I really don't need 1000 sleeves. The sites that I was given earlier in this thread are from the UK and the price plus the shipping make them very expensive. I will find some that will work though I just have to keep looking. :neutral:

Rose if they are A6 size I have just bought a pack of 50 cello bags for cards today, if you like to send them to me I will put them in the cello bags for you as I will never get through 50 and I got them in a shop not very expensive.
