That is a gorgeous card and I hope you've had a gorgeous day.
Alison, if it came damaged I'd be the one on the phone like a shot. If I could find a cheap way of getting it to you all, I'd have him send it here, as I kept all my white boxes over the years and store cards and card stock in them. I'd be happy to pack it in the boxes and send it on. It makes it easier for him as he thought he was sending it to me and he was just going to mark each 150 sheets after he'd counted it.
Does anyone know a reliable delivery company who don't charge the earth, especially as card is heavy stuff? Cheapest starting price I've seen is £5.99, his company is £6.50 up to the equivalent of 750 sheets of card stock, which is heavy, trust me. It was a bit cheaper but everything is going up. Even when we had snow hubby said they'd blame it on Brexit.
Oh just had a thought, we have a regular delivery driver (well we would for all the craft stuff) we're on first name terms now, he might have an idea what they charge.
You won’t get a decent delivery for much less then 5.99. We have accounts with DPD and Parcelforce, they’re £4 to £5 plus VAT, I’ll double check the rates on Monday when I’m in the office, and check price for third party collections too.
I have also used parcel monkey and parcel2go to get quotes online, they show all the options available. You usually need parcel weights and dimensions
I wouldn’t consider Hermes or yodel
I'm looking forward to seeing this card Alison because it isn't coming together yet. It will probably end up being a dinosaur, but hey, that's part of the natural world too, or it was.
Working on a nature card too how can it take so long theres so many pretty pp though trying not to cover up too much
Here it is finished now nature card.jpg

It is all just lovely Denise. Great image in the background, I love the spotty plant pot and those lollipop sticks too. Very much in keeping with the prompts.
A quick card from me with flowers and a new little die sentiment. Sorry for the awful photo, it is dull and miserable here, so one side of the card looks darker than the other - ah well.
I’ve been meaning to share this here. I received this amazing card from one of my Scrap Happy teamies, Michele from Crafts4eternity, on behalf of the team. Isn’t it stunning?
