Good Monday Morning Ladies,

Monday again!! Did any of you get any crafting done at the weekend??  I sat and played around with some different things, I had a parcel from Clarity that I had ordered a good three weeks ago from Hochanda, I had received everything else but the thing that I wanted the most (Picot Dies) were still missing, I called them on Thursday and spoke to a lovely chap, we went through everything and then it clicked!  I could see exactly what happened, I had ordered 3 seperate things that day (at different times) (all Groovi), this created 3 invoices, they obviously will try and fit as many things in one parcel as possible, which makes sense, the three invoices were stapled together, the items in the package were ticked off on invoice, apart from invoice 3, which were not going to fit in this box, I guess that the thinking was that they would just start another parcel, but never got around to it, mean time the invoice was packaged inside the one parcel with the other two and posted, so I guess that they had no outstanding paperwork.  I sent copies of the invoices etc to Hochanda and the lovely Ben was straight on to solving the issue, within a couple of hours he told me that Clarity were aware of the situation and were sending out the items by Royal Mail, true to their word it was first class and arrived Saturday morning.

 I think that sometimes can forget to praise when things have been dealt with properly,  especially the shopping channels as they more often than not get it wrong!!

Oh on the subject of Shopping TV, did any of you buy the Cutterpillar Pro when it first came out, If so let me know and I will explain my recent communication with them. 

Now onto today's cards....

The first is a gorgeous 'Arrow Head Fold' card that I received from a lovely lady called Karen over on our Fb Group, she said that the actually 'Fold' was designed by the Sam who's blog is 'Mixed Up Crafts', Karen followed Sam's tutorial using her own Design and it turned out amazingly, the paper that Karen has used is a really delicate floral that has delicate shades of different colours in the background mixed with those lovely daisies, to enhance this lovely paper Karen has added a mat of Rose gold glitter card, which really catches the light. she then die cut some pretty foliage pieces in the same glitter card and tucked them under the sentiment.

Karen I love my swap card thank you so much for taking part xxx

Next up is Cheryl's Fun Fold card that she made for the same swap, the card front is like looking through a window, I guess you could use it as a lantern as well.

On the first card Cheryl has added snowflakes onto acetate and placed that behind the window so that when you open the card it's like looking out and seeing a snow blizzard, the sentiment matches the card perfectly.

Cheryl's second card uses the same card front but this time she has used an adorable Polar Bear & cub topper, this time you put it onto the inside of the card so that when the card is stood up it looks as though you are peeking out at that cute scene. 

Both cards are amazing Cheryl, such a fantastic idea. xxx.

I hope that you all have a lovely day my lovelies,

Love and hugs to all of you,

Sandra
