Making cards - Ideas for a card craft beginner (part 2)

Lovely card, Rusty, and Flourgirl, that hamper is gorgeous, she's a lucky 15 year old, wish it was me! lol

I wondered if anyone had seen any large scalloped circle punches on their travels, I'd love one of these, but they're quite expensive, so wondered if anyone had seen some in any sales at all?

Also, where do you get your flowers from - the prima type flowers - I usually get mine from Ebay, but they're quite expensive and you don't get very many in the packet?

Thanks,

Sal

Hi Sally,

I have recently used these: http://www.sarahscardsltd.com/shop/213/index.htm

I believe this was a link Melissa posted up a while back recommending them (I think?)

Fast delivery and delivery was also free on the flowers ... I love my flowers I got from her, the only fault I have was that I wish I had ordered more :rotfl:

Thanks for the comment on my card

I would love to take the credit for the stamping but I am afraid I cheat, I find images on the net and if they are watermarked I ask OH to remove the water marks then just print and colour :rotfl:
Thankyou

Thank-you for your kind comments on my hamper, I love doing them. That one cost about £10 including the basket, half the fun is looking for sale items and BOGOFS.

Sal the spots on my card are called card candy they are just made from strong paper and attatched with tiny foam squares. You can get them from Craftwork Cards
