Fab card!!! Scrim is just brilliant!! Makes the most wonderful bows! I used it to wrap a classy present for my brothers wedding. My brother,like my dad, used to work for a plasterboard company,he kept looking at the present,turning it and remarked how stunning it looked..., then the penny dropped and he couldn't stop laughing.
Tis very reasonable too! Let's wish for sunshine tomorrow! Julie x
Brilliant Nic!! Love your B&Q purchase! xx Jenny xx
