    Hi everyone not long been in from work but while the jkt potatoes are in the oven, just thought I would update my blog and pop on here - as you do;)

    flourgirl - did you get much at the papermill shop - do you live near York??
    rainmac - please can you come to my house and sort it out - or give me the kick up the bum I need to get motivated:D
    rusty/choccy - lovely cards:T
    The Wife - lol at your cossie!
    lyndach - thanks for the recipe.

    Right better go and turn my spuds - by the way am I the only person who cant cook them - no matter how long I leave them in for they always seem to be a bit hard - and I have them on 220 for 1 hour - and then add extra 5 or 10 mins as nec. :eek:

    ali.b.123 I live in Doncaster which is about 35-40miles from York. They had white 300gsm textured card on offer for £2.99 for a huge box or 4 for £10 :) (They were the old style white boxes which hold twice as much ) plus 2 boxes of coloured card. I resisted everything else as I want to have something left to spend at the NEC.

    Jacket spuds I always cook in the microwave first then pop in a hot oven to brown and crisp up.

    Got your email Rusty... enjoy...

    Looks like I need to go and check out the blogs :)

    Hello you busy lot:j

    Chocolate mug cake sounds yummy.............:p

    Well todays efforts, such as they are - have been covering a shoe box and two twiglets tubs with some red textured wallpaper I got from charity shop............look ok I think and OH nods with approval.
    Now printer is working I've printed out some more recipes for foster daughters recipe index box.........now just need to find some pretty paper I can embellish with kitchen stuff.

    Another quick make from me on my blog ... this one is mothers day card number 2 .... 2 more to go lol ... only problem is I just realised the time and the children need feeding!

    Flourgirl - sounds like you got a bargain ;) they have them big boxes of white on offer at the metro centre, I have resisted well though as OH gets me a massive box from aberdeen as and when I need it and the quality is fab!

    catch up properly later on xxx

    Edit: I need glue dots ... can you please tell em what brand you use if you use them and where you get them from? I have just finished a box off which I got locally and was wondering wether to stick to a brand I like (i.e same brand) or to try something new?

    had some blank notelets . just used odd bits of paper that I had lying around and used lily of the valley fairies ( which I love ) then I used my box maker to make a box for them to go in
    easy peasy
