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

Being a newbie on here there is no way I can comment on all the cards on other pages it would take forever so just a group very well done and will try to keep up with the fast flowing thread
Rusty I too love your card, the black and white brad is lush0 -
Rusty - which one were you after??? I had a look on ebay to see if they had any before I ordered the stamps. I figured I'll only buy stamps that I like if I can't get the stamped images on ebay.0

Love your CCC challenge card on your blog Jailhouse, the image is gorgeous
Rusty, your latest card is fab, so co-ordinated :T You can't stop making them now! Are you going to sell them? You could take a box of cards to work and put it on the bar for people to have a look through...;)
Mel, assumed that was you in the photos and I was right Can't believe you've got less than 3 months to go until boy number three arrives, does he have a name yet or are you going to wait until he's born? I was convinced Thomas was a girl all during pregnancy so we had chosen the name Amelia/Milly (it was my nan's name). Got a shock when he was born and so we had to choose another name

I was just looking in general to be honest melissa as I have only ever stamped once on a piece of scrap card! I do like these greeting ones though and managed to nab the images off the net
I can send them over to you if you want? then you can print them off yourself? I only have some of the single ones, not sure I could do anything with the larger ones but I tend to search high and low on google to find things I like lol.
I only have the one stamp for now and that is it, although I ordered one last night but I can see me using some of my birthday money and buying just a couple of stamps
Thankyou Rainmac ... I hadn't thought about selling them, not sure they are good enough for that yet lol. My pretty man papers have just arrived and there is one that is perfect so I might have to go have another play now DD is in bed
And thankyou to all for the comments on my card Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -
Rainmac - I know time goes fast doesn't it? I am gradually building up my stock of baby clothes. We have chosen the name Elliot for this one - I don't know why it just came to me!!
Rusty - That's really kind of you - but I have given up trying to use my printer - it just gets me mad. Of course your cards are good enough to sell - give it a try and see how you get on!!
The postman has just knocked with my promarkers - hurrah!! I shall go and colour now!!0 -

Melissa if you can PM me your address I will print them off for you and post them to you. I normally print 9 images on an A4 page and then cut them down etc. they look fine though. A bit cheaper than buying stamps Let me know, I will do it for you no problem 
xx
Enjoy your promarkers
Elliot is a lovely name, Awwww how cute! I am all excited for you!! :jRaising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -

Enjoy the papers, look forward to seeing what you do with them :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:0 -
Rusty - that's so kind of you!! It makes such a difference now that I have some pens that I enjoy using - I wouldn't have bothered with stamping before I got these pens. It seems so long since I had my other two boys - I hope that I haven't forgotten what to do!!
Rainmac - I have just coloured in a face - I didn't have the right colour before. I have really got the urge to buy more stamps now!0 -
