    aaaaaaaargh I ordered some flowers from calico last night - well I got as far as putting them in my basket, went to put the kids to bed and forget to go back and checkout. the system is now down as they are doing a major stock take. I think you lot have crashed the system:rotfl:

    I ordered loads, she sent me a paypal invoice today and I paid, but when I put in email address she emailed me an invoice to my email addy and I needed it to be my tiers for rears email addy whoops. Still its all sorted now hopefully :)
    Think I ordered 48?

    Rusty - beautiful "thank you" card - I love her stockings. How many promarkers have you got now??? I think I've got about 50!!!! I bought that collection of animal stamps about a week ago - they are fabulous!! I'll upload a few pics of cards that I made with them in a bit.

    The_wife - really classy challenge card - I really like your flower and how you've done the heart.

    Craftygranny - Kaitlyn is such a cutie - you must be so proud of her.

    Dragonflew - gorgeous "thank you" card - I love the colours. Great xmas card too - I love your stamp - really different. I've had my eye on a few High Hopes stamps, but so far I haven't bought any.

    Jailhousebabe - beautiful card - I love the combination of the pink and brown together. Your new punch looks fab, I'm very tempted to buy one, I find my fiskars one a little difficult to use.


    You not popped yet? come on mrs what you playing at ... get OH to buy you a curry and take you for a drive and give you a ..... ;)

    Erm I had my hues arrive today which took me upto 4 packs physically here :o but then I decided to order the last 2 packs from joanna sheen so have the skin accents and greys coming hopefully next week :o

    Can you remember where you said the best place was to buy single promarkers from was?

    Did you buy the actual stamps or just the images? :eek:

    Rusty - I just bought the images. No sign of the baby yet - OH has stupidly said his two nephews can stay the night - they're here now, so I hope Elliot doesn't make an appearance later. There's a couple of sites that sell the promarkers individually, one is angel crafts - she does a bulk buy price if you buy 10, but her postage is a bit steep, or there's silly monkey crafts where I think they're a bit dearer, but there's free delivery if you spend over 25 quid.

    Wow Melissa, gorgeous cards. I love how your coloured images always match your backing papers perfectly - but I guess that's no wonder if you now have 50-odd promarkers!! I can't comment on your blog right now (computer says no), but I'll try again later.
    Mumhug - great Christmas challenge card; did you emboss the card yourself or was it ready-embossed? It's really pretty. I'm glad you found the time to join in, hope things are okay with you? x
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)
