    Thanks a lot for the fab comments on my blog, it means a lot because I thought I lost the interest but Gemm's beautiful card on her blog has given me the push to do something with some vintage inks that have been sitting idle since before Christmas. Thanks Gemm :D

    Hello all :j

    I'm doing a recipe card box for foster daughter for christmas and been trawling web sites looking at papers till my eyes are popping out :eek:
    I've got the index box-just need the paper - something that might suit kitchen/cooking.
    Thanks.

    Hope you're all ok and hugs ((((((((:o))))))) to those who need them
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

    mary have a look here at Daisie they've got some gorgeous stuff for kitchens, I think I've got one or two but what colourway are you using?

    They also have freebies so its worth signing up for their weekly newsletter.

  • I've got one from Kleeneze...it's okay, it works when I need it too but I'm not sure how it'd compare to any others, I've never had a different one, lol. It's about a year old?

    Right, I'm going to buy them individually, I think. I've got vanilla in my basket...any other suggestions?

    Lyndach - d'oh - sounds like something I would do.

    Mary - glad to hear you're feeling a bit better!!

    Lou05 - sorry I can't help I haven't heard of paper frills!!!

    Jailhousebabe - ICT law sounds very complicated - I studied law but we never touched on that area!!

    Glittermum - looks like you got some fab things in the swap. Your fairy card is beautiful - love the glitter effect. I can't wait to use my punches - they're currently at my Mum's house - she should be bringing them up soon. Your creations for the school sale look great - I bet you'll sell loads.

    Flourgirl - your card and post it holder for Glittermum are lovely.
  • Lol oh yeah, I forgot that. Sorry, my head is so fuzzy I'm surprised I can stand up, lol. Fibro is terrible recently...
    Thank you so much for your help, it's very appreciated :)

    Take things easy, Saucy. Find the colours you like, whereabouts are you ordering from as the Cowling & Wilcox had a colour chart which is where I was able to choose mine from, also they had the newish 5 pen colour sets, spring, summer autumn & winter.

    There is another site that has the full colour range but for the life of me I cant remember which one

    Thewife -= thanks I'll have a look at that.
    Hadn't thought about a colour really..........she lives in a lovely 'chocolate box' cottage and the kitchens a mixture of old and new........she's got a black tiled floor and some black and white tiles ...........I might feel inspired by the site anyway.
