    thankyou......i was thinking of doing that....sticking it on nice card and printing at home.....looks like i will be buying a printer then!

    is there a way of printing directly onto card?

    Hi Sarah
    Will cost you too much to print on card, better printing on paper then cutting it out and using double sided tape just stick it onto colour co-ordinating card eg: Pink, Blue, or Neutral depending on what nappy cake you are doing etc .............

    I use a little cupcake as my trademark on all my ingredient tags, this tag was for a bespoke mini pamper cake that was a special order..... Janey ;)

    Janey you pamper cake looks lovely
    sarahbear1 glad you found some boxes that work, boxes are expensive arnt they. The best I could find was around 35p a box, that was for ones that hold 2.
    Do people who make sock cup akes and bouquets list what the socks etc are made of on a label?
    Also do they use florist wire and tape to do the bouquets? Thanks:)
    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:
  • I'm having a very productive day making things for the craft fair in March. House to myself, kids at their grandparents - I am loving it. Just taking 5 minutes for a cuppa. Got about an hour and a half to go before I need to collect them so better get back to it soon.....

    Thats just what I need a child free few hours to really get stuck into finishing the craft fair things. I know what you mean with the computers and printers. It has taken me ages to do tags for things and Im only half way through.
    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:
  • Aw thankyou for lovely replies janey, really like your tags you do there I was also wanting to embellish mine in some way....- will be buying some card to stick the paper onto! Zangel the boxes I bought hold 4 with a window on them and work out nearly 90p each? But they hold 4 cupcakes and I thought it would be worth also embellishing these after all they are gifts! So I will be thinking about doing something with ribbon etc with them. The socks work out about 60p per pair I have been using too.

    I think 4 in a box is a lovely amount, especially when using silicone cases as 4 are more useful than 2 I think.
    I chose the ones that hold 2 as I wanted some gifts for under 5 pound for the craft fair. I bet yours are lovely, put some pics on when there finished. :)
    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:
