Some nice boy and pink papers at 3jollyscrappers hels.
Postage is £2.90 tho but some of the papers are 11p. The service is excellent too.

Furrypig - I've just been looking for something on my pc & come across an old email from a friend with photos of a baby Panda growing from tiny new born (think Padsters budgies) to recogniseable Panda. I think it's too big to put on here but if you pm me your email addy I can send it direct - I've also got one or two images of 'cartoon' type pandas if you'd like them.

thanks Marg that is so sweet of you! Will pm you

salesadmin thankyou very much I have downloaded the male toppers, I'm always at a loss for mens cards so these will come in very handy

Thank you all for your hugs.

Just wondering what you think of this idea: using a rectangle scallop punch to adapt regular card blanks into scalloped cards?

I lovvvvve scalloped cards so much but the cheapest I have found is 10 for £2.99 which is just way too much!


I might be going to Hobbycraft for the first time tomorrow - is it worth going? If so, what should I look out for?

Placed an order with Artymiss as there is free p&p - only spent £11 though so I don't feel too bad.
