Oooh, more lovely cards. Well done Clare; great idea to use the acetate. Looks brilliant. Love that Cuddly Buddly image. Just so tweet...!

 

Awww Rosie. I love Bagpuss and his squeaky friends. Love the charm and the dotty green ribbon too. Another great card. I can't believe you've been hiding those Bagpuss stamps away. They're fabby!

 

Coo, loads of great cards today. Hoorah!

 

Have a nice evening everybody. Lauren x

love the baggy cloth cat, Rosie! and professor yapple too..

i loved that programme when i was little and i bought the series on DVD for my niece so have been able to watch again.

 

another favourite kids programme when i was little was Mr.Benn and The Flumps. What about you lot?? Clare X

 

debs as to the project acetate, you need to look for 0.25 micron which is thick enough to stand up, i think they call it project acetate on create and craft (they sell A4 or A5). i just google searched (loads of options there) but can't remember where i got mine from.

Oooh I love Mr Benn AND The Flumps (I could still sing the music from either of them to my shame) and we've got the DVD's of both series. Does anybody remember Pogles Wood with Pippin and Tog?

Some of you have been busy already.

Lovely card Andy.You've coloured the the sweet little fairy beautifully.

Gorgeous purple dragon Kathy.You clever thing using that sequin waste to great effect.Loving the glittery circles on the bottom of your card.

Cute lickle duckies Debs.Lovely fresh colours.Might have to nab this image too.DD1 Is obsessed with ducks.Wants a pet one would you believe.

Adorable Easter tweets Clare.Your colouring is perfection.I spot some K & Co papers too.I just adore the rich tones of these ones.

 

"The Marvellous Mechanical Mouse Organ."Great card Rosie.Oooh,spotty ribbon and flower shaped buttons - luverly.

 

Not allowed to craft at weekends.Unless you count helping DD2 make a poster of the Solar System for a school project.Couldn't bear the the thought of her cutting all the circles by hand so I let her use my Nesties in my Bigshot.I was also very selfless and let her colour them with my Promarkers!!What a fabulous Mummy I am All this work for a measley team-point and a bit of paper from her teacher

 

Got Parents-in-Law visiting tomorrow so I've been busy cleaning up today.Good side to that is I won't have so much to do on Monday so I'll have some free time to play.Yay!

 

I love Mr.Benn and the Flumps too.You shouldn't really get me started on children's programmes - I just love them soooo much.Does anyone remember Chorlton and the Wheelies?Roobarb and Custard is fantastic!Love the wobbliness of the lines.Or is that the drink?

My more up-to-date favourites are Spongebob Squarepants and Chowder.

It was funny 'cos the kids were watching Wacky Races followed by Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines this afternoon.Catch that pigeon now!Poor Yankee Doodle Pigeon.
