A Pair of Penny Black Mice

While I was checking out Cute Card Thursday Design Term cards (they're fab) for the Mirror Mirror challenge I remembered this stamp and how I could use glossy accents on the lenses for this shiny challenge. I chose the Lime Ricky BG papers and then realised there's a sketch on Basic Grey Challenges, although I've missed out the flowers. I really need some cards for Men and it was really hard not to stick a flower on somewhere, then I was trying to work out what else I could put on it, there is a time when less is more and hopefully this is one of them.

So I've deleted my cookies on my PC to see if that would improve it, in future I will stick to one password, signing back into forums etc has been a bit of nightmare and it still didn't make my PC better. So eventually I went to the Help and Support and you have to follow the troubleshooting thingy, one of them was have you the latest updates from Microsoft, so I let it check and all of sudden it downloading and installing. I now have IE8, I was so worried it wouldn't work like Sis but touch wood it's working and the proof in the pudding will be this morning, when I go bloggin.

Thank you for lovely comments about Mum, she's doing OK and hasn't had another seizure but is still exhausted.
