What did you order :D

Love them both mel - did you make the flowers in the bottom right corner yourself - if you did spill the beans on how you did it please or if you didn't where did you get them so cute

Like the pic of her opening the pressies - the concentration...

and can I just say your layouts are amazing but your cards ARE AMAZING! Like the one you did for the challenge you're doing. LUSH.

This months challenge is to use ribbon techniques so I made the flowers. What I did was sew up the edge of the ribbon and then pull the cotton so that it all gathers. Tie a knot and you have a cute flower

Scattymam, have a nice time at the hair dressers although I never pay that much for my hair :rotfl: but then I never have it coloured or anything!

PLM - Have a fantastic night you deserve to. Hope the PLM littlys are feeling a little better Can I ask did you make your own corset? or did you have it made? Where would be the best place to sell a corset or would it be better to just keep it? sorry for so many questions, I have a beautiful silk one and I have worn it twice!!

Love the new work for the new challange! Wish I could do pages so beautiful!!


Chocky orange what did you order?

Well I have done absolutely nothing I felt so ill at half 10 this morning I scooped up my little and went and climbed back into bed. I didn't even hear her wake up but OH did and came up and sorted her out and left me sleeping ! I only woke up just before 3

Rusty, I have never seen your scrapbook pages but you are so talented I bet you could make something amazing I Wish i was talented enough to make a corset but me and sewing machines DO NOT get on. This is just one I bought from the shop.. Whenever I see a nice gothic number I can't resist it Why don't you wear your corset? Best place to sell it would be Ebay I think.. What's it like.. me likes corsets

Mel Get well soon xxxx ... I have just said to OH I feel funny ... I have stomach cramps and I am hoping it is just a passing thing! ...


Aurora VO is rubbish for me aswell, to the point I have given up from it and mark the mails as spam now! I am on £6 with one poll though so still a fair way to go for £40 but worth it as it has taken me about 1 week to get £6

These are 2 (well almost 2, I have another Jar to do) out of the 4 journal jars I need for mothers day .... I made matching bookmarks aswell

These are absolutely gorgeous Rusty!!!

So sorry Valued Opinions is being rubbish for lots of people. I do ok with them, couple of surveys a week so it's not going to make me a millionaire but it's a bit more to put towards Xmas

They are lovely layouts Mel, how did you get involved with the magazine in the first place?

I am never happy with my scrap book pages so then give up! although the last couple I have done have been better than most of my others which is a start :rotfl:
I don't get on with sewing machines either .... Hmmm I don't wear my corset cause I am fat and horrible and very concious! it is a beautiful corset and had it made for me as a thankyou from my old boss he paid £375!! :eek: It was made by a company called Rawhide corsets. It is a purpley colour with beading across the top all of the way round. It is silk, and has the dignity panel up the back. Errr I can't explain any more lol so will try and find a photo
It looks like this .... but she is extremely thin in hers :rotfl:
