Hi, it's this sort of colour I'm looking for http://www.merrytreasureshopper.com/uploads/AntiquePinkRosesandCherubsFloralCloseUpSml3.jpg

It's for my wedding invitations, having my flowers this colour and wanted to include theme on invitations. Thanks for your help :beer:

Lots of people on here recommend the papermill shop, do you have on near you? You can fill a box of any colour for 4.99. i thought the "rose tint" card here might be a match for you???

If not im sure someone else on here has a fab suggestion

Not quite sure what colour you mean but have you tried the Papermill Shop?
Other than that loads of places sell Bazzill which is textured but it's usually 12x12

LOL, snap paddington!

mrs Tidge Thank you so much have pm'd you back.

Myzdamena great cards on your blog have left you some coments

Skiergirl you are more than welcome

Paddington my husband threatened to skip all mine till i asked him if he'd really enjoy throwing all that money away. Changed his mind pretty quick.

He only found out by accident how much promarkers really cost. He'll be looking for a way to make them last forever .lol

Just finished a Flippin Christmas card... it took me hours and hours but I think it turned out ok..should be on my blog tomorrow unless someone throws water all over it and spoils it or something lol

tinypablo have you tried here all kinds of card in allsorts of colours and textures and if you buy anything check around the site as they have freebies you can add when buying.

Hmm why is it in order to make anything we have to have a craft space like a bomb site. When i tidy mine all inspiration goes out the window. or is it just me ?

Hello lovely people! :hello:

Very long time no see.

I've been dipping in and out and have seen a few of the gorgeous cards you all made - fantastic as ever!

I got a Cuttlebug!!!!! :j:j:j:j:j

Problem is I know what die I want but not what it's called!!It's a square with squiggly brackets on the sides...does that make any sense?? A few months ago a few very generous people sent me some embossed cut outs - if you know who you are pls can you tell me what die I need?

I've also updated my blog with some cards and some scrapbook pages: http://justbecauseitmakesmesmile.blogspot.com/

I went but the Promarkers weren't on offer in my Hobbycraft I already have 2 packs but want more, much more

Do you want me to get you some? They had loads in Milton Keynes and I forgot to get a card with an aperture for my stitched card so I should really go back anyway

I also realised I have doubles in the packs I think there were two the same colour so I'll add those to the blog candy.

craftygranny - my inspiration seems to disappear after tidying up too

npsmama - I think the die is the one I want for my birthday it's a nestie called labels one. Don't know if cuttlebug do anything similar

craftygranny

I think sales admin is right i have labels one and it cuts out like the backing paper shapes on these if it is . I got mine from an ebay seller called macorr on buy it now and they were delivered next day.

How much money have the shops made selling cuttlebugs and promarkers to us lot.lol.
