Minimum order appears to be £10 - it wouldn't let me complete an order for less than that anyway.

You are right i only saw the bubble at the top of the page saying free p&p.Just checked and it is for orders off £10.00 and over,still some good bargains in the sale.

Definitely some good bargains there - I'm just trying to be good and not spend too much right now. Those six 3m lengths of ribbon just jumped into my hand at Hobbycraft this evening :rolleyes: Well, they were reduced to 49p each and they're so colourful and pretty

I don't even understand your post but I guess it is good :rotfl: I started my card last night :j and plan to get off here in a few minutes and go and finish it off ... it's not brilliant mind, but at least I gave it a go

I have seen the challenge posts on here, who organises them? I would love to take part, I have treated myself to lots of goodies recently

i've just been to our craft shop and they didn't have the pink squeezey thingy in, she didn't sell them, i may well wait and see how yours goes, then get one.

Hi cookiedough. I only started doing the challenges a few weeks ago so don't know too much. I can tell you that saveapenny set the last challenge and pinkladymel the two before that. The current challenge finishes this Monday, then there'll be another one posted that will probably run for 2 weeks. HTH x

It's a die cut tool. I tend to buy lots of alphabet stickers so am hoping this will save me money in the long term as it came with a set of alphabet dies. I've got it home and taken it out of the packaging but that's as far as I've got. Will have a play when boys are in bed tonight

Looking forward to seeing your card :T
