I just tried signing up too and it said that the site was down "performing maintenance".

I have tried also and keep getting the same message. I was midway through signing up and had selected my user name but it then gave the maintenance screen. I have just tried again and is says that my user name is not available but I have not received an email or anything else - I am now in the abyss !

I'm sorry if I am the one who broke it !

quick q. Ive a self healing xcut mat. Ive just bought a craft knife. and used it o the craft mat, its made a few scores [i know its self healing] but is there another mat i should use for cutting rather than the one i lean on for prep? Or am i silly?

I use my self healing mat for cutting on and working on, I even use it when heat embossing they really are quite tough.

Me again with another crafting offer! Just discovered that Create and Craft have got free postage (started Fri) on all orders until 9pm Monday.

I so nearly got three sets of those QVC storage boxes (I have a junk/craft room that needs a serious clear out) but didn't want to encounter 'hubby wrath!' when they arrived.... (bit difficult to hide great big boxes! :rotfl:)
