Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge




It's my turn to choose the theme this week at Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge, I have chosen Create a Scene.
I must admit, I choose this as I usually back away if I see this as a challenge, but I thought I would challenge myself and give it a try.
To make it easier you don't have to use stamps (if you don't want to) to create your scene, if you have backing papers, you can make your scene using those. Please give it a try, I ended up really enjoying myself and loved working out which stamps I could use and choosing a colour scheme. My card is 8" x 8" as my scene ending up very large lol. I told you I got carried away. The images are magnolia Spring kit, a gift from my wonderful friend Linda. I have coloured them with distress inks, papers are 3 bugs in a rug. flowers are papermaina and popicrafts, brads popicrafts. Thanks for looking and for all the wonderful comments you all leave for me, it makes my day when I read through them all, have a wonderful weekend hugs Jill xx

So Upset updated

Hi everyone just needed to have a little rant, I purchased 2 DCWV paper stacks from E Bay, the seller after taking my instant Paypal payment, then said they didn't have the stacks???? I emailed back and asked for a full refund. They never responded and I opened up a dispute via paypal, I've just received an unpleasant response from the dispute centre from them and they are saying they didn't get any emails from me!! I'm so worried and just want to be refunded my money back in full. When I've looked at there feedback they often haven't refunded people or people haven't received their goods, but the feedback score was 99.4%. So beware, take a good look through the feedback before you buy hugs Jill xx

thanks so much for all you kind words and encouragement, I finally got a refund and an apology hugS Jill xx
