    Rusty I think I can guess your secret suprise;) it crossed my mind too x

    Rainmac I was thinking about the embossing for those who dont have a cuttlebug, most of us have embossed card in our stash even if its only the bazill swiss dots. If anyone is short of it I can always post some to them. x

    :rotfl: maybe only a little part of it ;)

    If you would like a secret suprise through your door then can you PM me your address please ;)

    Rainmac don't get too excited ;) It's nothing special :p

    QVC is showing lots of programmes from tomorrow about crafting techniques (a programme a day for a week I think). Think there is a card making TSV in Tuesday too.

    Just had a look, starts Tuesday, there's more than one programme a day - going to set Sky+ up tomorrow to record some of them I think!

    Hello ladies

    Hope everyone is well and those of you who are poorly or who have poorly relatives are getting on ok?

    Some lovely cards made by everyone lately!

    I have a question for those of you who give boxes of cards as gifts - what kind of box do you put them in, do you gift wrap it or anything? Also, where do you buy your cello envelopes from - especially the square ones?

    Thanks!

    Sal


    Hi Sal I bought my square cello bags from Craft Superstore but used them via ebay as they were cheaper and so was the p&p:confused:.

    okay okay if you insist I will try and be organised enough to coordinate the challenge!!

    Can i just make a suggestion that it can be dry embossing or heat embossing with powders and a stamp as that might help a few people out xxx
