Saveapenny - I thought that ribbon storage looked cool - but I'm trying not to spend too much at the minute.
Rainmac - great card - I love those papers - are they the lime rickey ones?? I am so bad I ordered them without really looking at them.
Flourgirl - I couldn't find any brown which is unbelievable - I've started using bazill cardstock for my cards and I have sooo many sheets - but no brown!! I used a basic grey sheet in the end - hurrah for basic grey!!!
FifiFolle - just Pm me your address and I'll sort you some stuff out!!!
Mumhug - lovely card - I really like the purple!!!
Bunbun - yep - Jailhousebabe's right I ordered it last night from craft superstore - it was 20 quid but I used quiksave's discount code - PC22 - to get 15% off, and of course I made sure I spent over 40 quid so that I qualified for free delivery.

Bunbun thank-you for trying hope you didn't go to any trouble looking for me.

Npsmama & Marg thanks for your offer but Glitter Pot have it back in stock so have ordered it from there plus a few other bits:)

Melissa - You are soooo naughty.

I am struggling to find them wisteria papers? I just want to have a proper look at the but not sure if I am spelling it right or anything I think I will go look at craft superstore ... I might have to make up some blog candy to get rid of some stuff I wont use lol

For anyone who has promarkers (although I guess the techniques will work with any pens), I've just stumbled across a blog that contains a tutorial for colouring with promarkers. She uses the sitting gorjuss girl that many of us are familiar with.
The links are at the top of the sidebar.

Great cards, Im really forgetful...to many to mention individually:rolleyes:
Rainmac, it was a set of penny black images from ebay called party time. There were 5 images and u get 2 of each image in a set. There is the same set on ebay at the mo from same seller, it ends tonite but theres already a bidder Ebay

I will try scanning in my 5 images and email them to you and u can see what the print quality is like and then u wouldnt need to buy of ebay? PM me your email.

Also can i ask where do u get ur "thank you"/"thinking of you" seniments and the flower posey and cupcake with strawberry images on the cards on your blog? thanks

thank you melissa and jailhousebabe for the info on the x cut guillotine. I thought it was craftsuperstore but couldn't find it on there when I looked earlier so thank you jailhousebabe for the link. thanks to melissa for the discount code.

flourgirl it was no trouble going to look for the mag - I'm just sorry they didn't have it.

rusty if you are selling some of your card candy i would be interested. as long as it not all the yukky colours you don't want:rotfl:

OH and the boys have gone to the Terry Deary (Horrible Histories) roadshow so I am going to make some cards!
