    debsy your card is so pretty and dainty.

    Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for all the help and advice I recieved from you ladies.
    I finished my valentines card today with the help of saveapenny's insert (thank you). I put a little verse in it too and I'm very pleased with it for my first real card.
    Your welcome

    Debsy - lovely card. I love how it opens and it looks like all the holes are meant to be there

    Saveapenny - fab card. I love those decopage sets from your photbucket. I used the football one for my brothers birthday and mounted it on acetate. They are just very manly iyswim.

    Saveapenny - fab card. I bought those sheets and the toilet one was my favourite. I bought the matching card blanks but I was really annoyed because they didn't supply the acetate sheet with it. I was thinking of doing the same as you with them and just putting the second image on the inside of a normal card blank.
  • saveapenny - Your cards ace can you tell me where you got the image from, it just looks like my o/h. Being from Yorkshire we always wear our flat cap and have our whippet near by :rotfl: .

    saveapenny your card tickled me, we were just talking about that very subject on Sunday. It's brilliant.
    Thank you so much for the link below, it dawned on me yesterday that OH birthday is the 7th Feb. So guess I'll be making another card this week and those are perfect.

    Saveapenny - that paper looks fab!

    Mary - Years ago I went into hospital to have my wisdom teeth taken out, and caught it. I had a really bad case of it last year when my eyes were really sensitive to light, it was so bad I felt like crying. My m-i-l always says to wipe your eyes with warm milk.

    A heads up for another sale. I can't remember who was asking about wax seals for a wedding invitation, and I'm too lazy to look through the thread. But I found these on special offer here:
    http://www.craft-emporium.co.uk/index.php?cPath=505_509&sort=3a&page=4
    there's some for 8 quid!!!!!!! BUT there's also a few for 3 quid, if you look on the next page there's a "family" one that might be suitable.
    There's some decent stuff in the sale :
    http://www.craft-emporium.co.uk/index.php?cPath=505
    and here's a link for some K and Co bargains:
    http://www.craft-emporium.co.uk/index.php?cPath=505_508&sort=3a&page=13
    I've got a few of the flip packs and they're really good, I like the look of the month one, (12 sheets of stickers for 2.37). Check out the next page too as there's some of the xmas range reduced. Are you looking Rainmac??????
    Delivery is 2.95 for up to a 30 quid spend.

    I might have just had a little tiny sneeky peek :p Have had an email today to say my docrafts stuff is on it's way so going to resist more bargains and wait for that to come, aren't I good :A :rotfl:

    I do like the look of those K&Co flip packs, not seen them before.
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:
