Ooh I cant see it either!?! finding it hard to keep up at the mo. so not sure where it was cant see it at the top of this page??

Also, what would you do here, when I was blog hopping went on a blog and saw a card I liked and thought could do similar - but it said dont copy without the blog holders permission - I have emailed her and not had a reply and its been a week, would you just do it but not put a pic on your blog of it?? or email again??

If it was for personal use and not for sale i'd do something like it and if i blogged it i'd put inspired by and a link to her blog .

I know I'm being a bit dim here, but what topmost thread (I take it refers to blogs and linking??)..... but I can't see it . I think it must be the mass of reading I've done on here today!

It's the "sticky" at the top of the Special Occasions & Celebrations board. If you scroll down and click on the box to change from this to a differnent board, just click the GO button as it's already on the Special Occasions board (IYSWIM). That takes you to the thread list of this board and it's the top sticky.

ETA: Here's the link to what I'm on about, just read that again and it sounds like gobbledegook!

Thanks Tomsmum. Your post makes perfect sense.

I've just read today's posts but will comment on them later - I'm not long n from work and am ready for a nice cold drink

So just a quickie to say that it is okay for people to link to their blogs under their user name (the bit where you click to send someone a pm). Go to user cp at the top of your page and edit your profile - there's an option to add a link to your homepage where you can input your blog address. Whenever you tell people there's an update on your blog, you can then direct them to look at the link under your name in the post IYKWIM. I know some people on here have already done it, but I thought it might help others x

Seriously considering setting up a monthly thread on craftyplace to pass the savings on. First order has to be £100 then each order after that has to be £50.

I would be very interested in that please! I know loads of people have already said they are, but there are a number of items on the website I would like.

Would you have to buy 8 of everything, or will everyone post what they want, then try and divide it up somehow, so you don't have to get 8?

Also - I've noticed a lot of people putting their sentiments on a small circle, which sticks out of the page. I thought it looked effective. I've just seen circular senitments on craftworks, which someone mentioned above. Are they made of card? Or do you stick those on something else first, and then put them on?

Also, would someone mind posting a link to the craftplace again though please, I stupidly forgot to bookmark it.

Here you go Jaz. I'm also possibly interested in some things if Rusty goes ahead with this. Looks like she might be busy!

Thanks very much!

Yes indeed, I don't think Rusty expected everyone to want stuff! We're a spendy bunch. :cool:
