    Rainmac - thanks for the link to poppicrafts

    CT19720/kim possible - yeah they were the kits that I was on about - it is really good value. I've already got all of those papers, otherwise I would be tempted. Myself and bunbun just bought our guillotines from there for 20 (before the 15% discount) - they're meant to be 30, so that was quite a good deal. Postage is free over 40 quid too.

    Hels - welcome back.

    CT19720 this is what i was referring to as the kit

    If anyone could confirm that would be great.
    Id started a blog as
    1) my card collect was geting too large
    2) I wanted to enter some blog challenges
    Ive entered the CCC challenge this week with a handbag, but Id asked saveapenny for a template last sunday not realising one of the demo cards was a handbag too... so Saveapenny can vouch for my honesty;)
    The second challenge I entered was the secret crafters saturday challenge "glitter" so I entered a baby boy pram that I had made.
    Heres my blog: http://kim---possible.blogspot.com/

    what is the 15% code please? :D

    Evening ladies,

    I must apologise, I have been reading the threads however I have been AWOL as has been noticed by quite a few of you.

    I apologise as I thought I could slip away and not be noticed but apparently lots of you noticed, so I must say sorry now I don't mean to be ignorant, I haven't thanked any of the posts or commented on the cards. I am having a really bad time, and unfortunately I am not strong enough to deal with it all so have just cracked up and hid from everything. I logged out of the forum as I didn't want to depress anyone else etc. Most of you know most of the things going on in my life, some more than others and most of you don't even know the half of it. I know life is tough for everyone, I have coped better than most with horrible things that have been thrown at me but I have now cracked. I felt I had to come on and post to apologise for being AWOL and to just say to people not to worry, I really appreciate your friendship but I just can't talk about everything at the moment and also thankyou, for all of your support etc.
    Some of you will have seen my latest card on my blog (the bikini one) and have commented.

    Also thankyou to Mumhug for my award, I have passed it on to 7 people, details on my blog.

    https://www.dropletsinarustybucket.blogspot.com

    Once again thankyou to you all (you know who you are) and apologies to all for being AWOL. I am about to log out and hide for a bit again ... just til someone turns that light on at the end of the tunnel ... hopefully it will be turned on soon!

    Take care all and please keep posting the cards, you have all been a real inspiration for me xxxx
