I'm happy to go with the majority and I agree that cards are not too expensive to post.

What about a theme, I am a bit short on ideas

In view of the recent avatar changes, animals ?

yeah!!

ok more ATCs! I think that is great!!

Ok so I'll copy and paste the old list..but reverse it..
i'll start a new thread

and a theme..animals!

Animals sounds good as one of the pattern ideas I had has animals in it.

YAY I'm glad that it's arrived!

Here's the photo I took before sending it.

Very nice, Angel!

That's smashing Angel, I like the way the ears go over the rose

very cute!

That's lovely Angel!

Thanks ^_^ I tried, but Mags can still accidently burn it if she likes ^_^

Nooo, I bet Mags is well pleased with it!
I'm really impressed with you doing it Angel. I didn't join in as I wouldn't have a clue about sticking it together as a card ...well, except messily!
yous looks really, really good!

Angel, I am certainly not going to burn it Its lovely.

TB do join in.

hehe I didn't really have a clue how to finish it either...and lost my scissors to trim in nicely. I got my glue gun out. Things stick nicely with a glue gun You should join in though.

I'm glad you like it Mags ^_^

It is very sweet Angel and if I sent mine out with my mistake you have nothing to be ashamed of. It is really a wonderful piece. We are our own worst critics.

I'm trying to get into the habbit of making all my stitches lay the same way. That's my major embarrassment for this one. The rose isn't smooth. but has my nice little fur effect

Thank you ^_^

ok for those that may have missed it...i started a new thread for the round 2...

cya there!
i have

That's lovely Angel -- I'm very pleased I'll be the recipient of your next effort!

Talking of which ... I woke up this morning with rather a promising idea for an elongated cat design, so I skived off work (not quite so naughty as it sounds when you work from home ) and got out the squared paper and pencil. It didn't quite end up the way I'd first thought (I find designs do that, they sort of go their own way; has anyone else noticed this?) but I've now got a design with two long slender cats, one black and white and one ginger, with a top and bottom border of matching paw prints.

Now all I have to do is stitch it but I think I'd better finish the Britty kitty first, and possibly do a bit of kingfisher, oh and that brooch....

It may be a while before I get to send it out to you, Alyson

Anyway, if it works 'in the flesh' I'll post the design in the design-sharing thread for all cat lovers out there.
