Making Cards - Ideas for a card craft beginner (Part 3)

Rusty - it sounds like the October Afternoon papers wont be out for ages!!! I think there's only a couple of stores that have the new MME papers in - its worth checking on the " a word from our sponsers" thread too - sometimes shops post on there about their new products. I'll keep an eye out for you - I like the robots range too!!! There's some new cosmo cricket ranges that are out at the minute - I'm not sure whether to get them now or wait!!

I found the MME papers through the word from the sponsors, still trying to navigate my way round as I use the robo section a fair bit. I do love to look what everyone wants aswell though.

What is the robot range? did I miss that one? Love the new cosmo cricket ranges, I am very tempted by a couple of them but keep holding back as I have loads of paper pads and my 12x12 box which is filled with 6x6 papers is chockablock full!!

Popkins, sorry you've got the lurgies too, I know what you mean about being out of breath and having to push yourself to do something, all ME wants to do is blob on the couch but the steroids are are like a bliddy seargeant major. Get up, lazy moo! Do the ironing, where's that duster? Drag your sorry backside up now, pull yourself together,woman! Hey ho! This is the steroids working! Time for that three course dinner to be cooked. Yeah! right!

Kelda, also have a look on lots of the blogs of the MSE'ers on here, they dead clever and enter challenges on various blogs, follow the links on the side bars on their blogs. If you find something you like and you are not sure how it's done , post a link and we all will do our best to help. We've all got different styles and you will find your own very soon. If you look on various craft shops too you will find their galleries, its good place to start.

Thankyou all for your congratulations I will take a piccie of the stamp when it arrives for you all t see

Rusty sorry to hear missy isn't well again grrrr I think we have a new superbug going round and round and round.............. Poor little mite, there is nothing worse than earache (or toothache) she is also too young to understand why mummy cant make it go away. Big Hugs for her ((((XX))))
I tried to do the unlimited subscription yesterday with no success:mad: so contacted Crafts U Love about it and they just fobbed me off and told me to get in touch with Silhouette in America. Today not to be beaten by it I have tried again with the code and it said it had expired months ago but as a gesture of good will they would give me 10% off, not 75% (6months free + 6months half price). So my DH and me have sent an email asking for the original offer to be reinstated. So we will see, I have the red rag between my teeth now :mad:

I love technical terms lol!! :T

It's my dh's cousins 21st on Sunday, so I'm looking for ideas to make a card for that at the moment. I think that will then help me to decide what I should by first...... If you have any suggestions, please do feel free to suggest away .

Thanks flourgirl, explains why she is such a grotty madam lately! just seems to be the same things over and over, she was on eyedrops just before christmas for conjunctivitus, then rushed to hospital just after christmas with a nasty chest infection which she is still trying to battle through 2 months down the line!

Don't be fobbed off by craftsulove, they were selling it with a subscription offer so have to honour that as advertised keep pestering them til you get the outcome you want. I can't see silhouette in america being of any help as it wasn't them who gave you the offer so to speak!
Good luck! xxx

Its really cheered me up cos I'm having a carp week - really ill with some flu bug - Valentines had to be postponed cos of it!! and been awful ever since!!! Its really bad timing as got sooo much to do this week!!! Managed to finish the wedding invites yesterday (don't know how as can't even breathe or see straight!! they're probably all wonky!!) and also got orders for 5 nappy cakes!! 2 are nearly finished and just trying to force myself to finish them cos gotta deliver them tomorrow!!! Not even sure how I'll be able to drive tbh!!!

Anyway I LOVE my pink Cuttlebug but now feel guilty and maybe I should hide it from hubby until I feel better just in case he tells me off!!!
