What an ingenious idea Coops, the misty effect finishes off your fabby card beutifully. Gosh I would have a few hairy moments trying that technique, probably end up in the bucket lol! We had Apple and Morgan Spiced laced Raisen Pie, Custard and Cream, mmmnnnn yummy. Not sure about the calories tho! Carolxx
