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

furrypig

I want some black peel offs anyone seen any cheap ones anywhere??

Last week I was away with my parents for a few days and I did a glasspainting craft session with DD. We very simply put black peel offs on glasses then painted them and it made candle holders very cute! Need to buy some but they need to be quite large designs ie not too fiddly to paint but not large in size if that makes sense???

Thank you Marg

Thanks for the link. I love to collect Basic Grey but have a hard time making anything with it! I think I get scared of covering the pretty patterns!

Marg

Furry - Random thought - Could you use a black permanent marker to colour over a gold or silver peel off you like then stick on glass?

Melissa - perhaps the £100 person was a plant to encourage others to spend that much?
.....really am going to bed now.....

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!

My youngest loves Einsteins and I looked into toys here and they are thin on the ground!!! DVDs are plentiful, play.com have them for £3.99 He also loves Ben 10 and has the watch thingie that Ben wears and pretends he is Ben 10, it is very funny to see my 2 year old acting out turning into an alien

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

Oh wow :j :j :j The 12x12 papers are double sided too!!! They don't have the cupcake one on there yet, will keep checking back

Saw this yesterday, isn't it cute..
