Oooooooh I just had an email from sarahs cards and there is a new range of basic grey out, one called lemonade and another called June bug!

They might just fall into my basket as they are very pretty :rotfl:

Does anyone know when the 15% code for Craft Superstore expires? I know i've only been making cards for a little while but all this talk about Cuttlebugs and the gorgeous cards that have been made using one has made me want it! Anyway this is Money Saving Expert and who can resist a bargain like that hehe (don't know if it counts though...) AND it's my birthday in a months time so could be a good pressie!

Thanks,
Laura

I have left comments on cards on blogs

I have made a couple more cards today for fil birthday ( getting fed up with making mens cards now lol) have added pics to my blog http://dragonllew.blogspot.com/

I have made my card swap card today as well will try and get it in the post tomorrow. I decided to have a go at a pocket card and was surprised how easy they were. Have also storted my stash swap stuff so will get that posted off to.

I know!! I saw it when I googled :j :j mind you that may not be a good thing ... did I mention they not only fell into the basket but they also paid for themselves aswell!! What naughty BG papers they are! now I just have to hope they arrive before OH gets back on Fri :rotfl: or hope they arrive when he goes again mon!

Lei I am not sure if it has an expiry date or not? it is possible but I am afraid I don't know when it is!

Personally I haven't, however I saw somewhere on one of the advertisers on ukscrappers that is is bazill cardstock? I could be wrong though?

Actually ignore me ... look here http://www.scraprevolution.co.uk/home.php?cat=1198

Scroll down and they say it is bazill basics cardstock to match lemonade so wether it would be a good match or not I have no idea.

Is this the cardstock you mean?

this is what i was refering to? has anyone used it?
