New Challenge blog and I failed again!

I must hang my head in shame as I have failed miserably again!  As a card maker, today I committed the ultimate crime - I bought a birthday card for a friend's birthday this week.  Despite all good intentions of getting a good back up of cards, I hadn't got one suitable for this birthday.

However, in my defence, it was a "man card" and we all know how awkward they can be (the men or the cards???  I'll let you decide!).  And, I did try my best to purchase a card that looked a little bit as though some effort had been put into it by someone - it had a little wooden and fabric yatch glued on the front! 

Must try harder in future Amanda!!!  I bet there's loads of you out there who can sympathise with my dilema!  Confession over now so I can start to feel less guity!

Anyway, there's a new challenge blog launching on 5th February 2011 over at Little Claire's and to celebrate they have some great blog candy for one lucky person:


They have some really cute stamps in their range so don't forget to pop along to their blog and have a nosey around!

Thanks for looking and keeping watching out - I'm sorting out a bit of blog candy for my own blog soon!

Just forget about it! I try to keep a few cards to hand but I still never seem to have just the right one when I need it. Especially when my hubby often announces just before bedtime, 'Oh, it's so-and-so's birthday tomorrow, have you got a card?' Grrrr!!
