What a cute fruity veg monster made by grandad, no wonder it won first prize, so cute, love the nose.
Carol, lovely card and image too.
When I print on tissue paper I get mine from the office works place, use double sided tape and tape it onto my A4 paper that way it will print and not jam up...mine never has jammed up.xx Hope that helps. [aNNie]

I think I go to monochrome phases too, 3 or 4 cards and then none for a long time till I get into monochrome phase again:) I like the look though, elegant and clean feel.
