    I've just had a look at the website for the craft shop I recently discovered in Coventry - Stampeezee. All of their wood-mounted stamps are half-price until May 2nd.

    They also sell Imaginisce stamps for 99p; they sell them in Hobbycraft for £1.49 :eek:

    ETA: Just had a look through, lots are showing as out of stock. I might visit tomorrow... just in case.
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Just wanted to remind everyone not to make any purchases until the weekend as there should be loads of offers on for National Scrapbooking day.

    Someone asked the other day how I ink my edges. I use Colourbox cats eye inkpad queues. Starting with the lightest brown at a 45 degree angle around the edges. Then the darker brown at a less angle and finished with the dark brown just dragged quickly along the edges.

    You can also use really dry old inkpads or use those makeup wedge sponges to apply ink to edges. HTH xx

    I asked you that this morning ;) although I believe I called them dirty edges :rotfl:

    What was the link for this? - I've had a look but seemed to have missed it. Is the offer still on? If so, I'd quite like a Cardmaker's Yearbook. Thanks.

    Here you go, costs £2.99 for p&p...
