    Worth trying to see if it works............not sure which way out mine are on...........I have been known to go out with label showing on my jumper...............even worse, with Help the Aged price tag showing..........£2.99, something like that..............lol
    I have to find something to laugh at............my Dad always said there's humour in all things, however bad, if you look for it, and he wasn't far wrong.

    Bless you all 'knickers inside out' girls :T
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

    Skiergirl - sorry I knew I had to add you to my earlier comments - that is truly sad news (((hugs))).
    Mary - lol at knickers inside out - sounds good. Thank goodness your friend didnt recommend going commando - bit chilly for that!!
    Gemm - Ooh I know I had a little nosy on the web site earlier - looking for different bits & pieces. Although not supposed to be buying anything crafty as bought a new foundation the other day, my hubby forgets most things I tell him - but I bet he doesnt forget that!!

    ooh I almost forgot, I had some good news today that I forgot to mention when posted earlier!

    I made a 21st birthday card as an order for one of my mum's work colleagues and told my mum it was £1.50 (provided the lady thought it was worth that much!) and the sweet lady gave my mum £4 for it!! That's by far the most anyone's ever given me for a card, and I'm just dead chuffed she thought it was worth that much! :)

    I've been out with a pair of tights down a trouser leg and wondered what was tickling me. Removing them was like being a magician and pulling a row of flags from out of a sleeve:rotfl:

    Princesswoo – really hope that Lily and the rest of your family starts to feel better soon.

    Rainmac – thank you so much for the link to the you tube video on how to make an easel card – I’ve made this one this afternoon for Caitlyn on post pals, and will be sending her some bits and pieces too.

    Mary-op – hope they manage to diagnose your OH health issues soon. I’d be up for a ‘wear your knickers inside out' day, and have often done the same as the wife, when getting dressed in the dark!

    Skiergirl – sorry to hear about your friend, when you hear news like that it puts my everyday whinges and moans into perspective.

    Louby Lou Lou – good luck with the craft fair, hope it is as successful for you as rainmac’s was.

    Great masculine card Alyssa – I always find them so difficult to do.

    Gemm – wow £4 for a card – well done. I bet it was fab, and the lady you sold it to obviously thought so.

    JHB – hope you have a fab time in Las Vegas this week. I went there about 10 years ago and loved every minute, even a scary flight over the Grand Canyon and would love to go back one day.

    Can anyone identify this embossed design for me? I really like it and it came in a pack I bought from the Works a while ago. I thought it was a ‘Daisy’ cuttlebug embossing folder but it looks slightly different to that one (sorry about the rubbish photo).

    2016 is the year I am going to find time for me, and cherish the time I spend with my friends and family.
    It is also time to save - Aim £4,000 - So far this year - £230/£4,000
