Great card Pinky, the image is just great and I love the colours of the papers youve chosen.
Nothing seems to be made with any care these days does it? Its amazing to think it only lasted 2mths, how awful is that.
I hope the replacement comes a little sooner for you though!

Lovely pinky, sorry to hear about your printer dilemma!
Really cute card Pinky, love the gingham it alwasys looks fresh. Great card for a man. Sorry to here about your printer, to think it only lasted 2 months and is now in printer heaven. They say it's a throw away society you would expect it to last longer than that.
