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

jamtart6

Hi Rusty

Melissa - I don't really watch QVC crafts for that reason, the cards never manage to inspire me!

Jamtart - I know what you mean, I still watch it though - they seem to be quite behind the times in the stuff that they stock!

I agree! I used to love Create and Craft as well for ideas back in 2003/2004 but it is better to spend time surfing blogs/websites for up to date ideas imho

There's no mention of basic grey, martha stewart etc and there's hardly ever any decent stamps!

Is anyone else up and watching qvc - or am I the only one sad enough???? I don't like either of the tsv's - give me a good stamp and some basic grey anyday!! I really think though that the cards you all make on here are so much nicer than the ones they show to demonstrate their products.

So glad to read this post Melissa as I was just on msn chatting to some chums and siad that I was watching qvc and I think they thought I was a bit sad too!!

Not liking the Bibby's waistcoat much tho!!!!

I do like some of the christmas topper bits but not a huge fan of Kanban!!!

Rusty - My two have just grown out of peppa and little einsteins. now they watch spongebob all day! Have you tried watching qvc online?

We have gone from winnie the pooh onto einsteins and peppa was a complete accident!! ... she drives me crackers with them 2... I have just bought loads of things from america for christmas for her of einsteins as it is limited over here!! ...

I can't get things to work properly on my laptop, probably cause I am using vista!

Just thought I'd show everyone this:

this shop is taking pre-orders for the new basic ranges, some of the matching embellishments look fab.

Rusty - I've heard that vista is horrendous! My two love mario and luigi - I ended up buying loads of stuff from ebay from sellers in Hong Kong for them last xmas.

Furrypig - I don't like kanban either - some of the modern toppers looked okay, but there's no way I'd pay that price.

Rusty - that sounds encouraging - if DD is eating a bit is she feeling a bit better? Hope you can get a sensible answer to your scan difficulties from OH uncle. There's no way you should remain in pain indefinitely.

Melissa - just turned over to QVC thank you! but now need to go to bed!

Welcome back Jammy
