It's all my sons fault he's just moved into a new house and taken his junk from the garage now he's going to do a car boot this weekend with all the stuff he doesn't need plus a pile of stuff from the garage.

Wow, wow, wow, look at these super cute houses from Craftwork Cards (Mrs Tidge, I am in love with them!)... http://www.craftworkcards.co.uk/embellishments_list.asp?type=emb&embellishment=125



I haven't ordered - can you believe it!!! They do 2 sizes and not sure which size to go for so I think I am going to wait and see if they are at the NEC in November and get them then. I'd like to make them for Christmas decorations/Advent Calendar boxes.

Have ordered this super cute boy today though... http://www.funkykits.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=409

Mrs T, Dragonllew & Skiergirl - Hope you all have a good weekend away with quiet roads (to craft shops!)

Welcome back Lucy - don't be afraid! real life gets in the way for all of us from time to time.

Padster - Go for it! - it'll grow again if you're not happy with it. How did your tea party go?

Moonpenny - try stationers shops like Staples 'cos Avery do full size A4 self adhesive pages - they may do larger.

Welcome - sillyinthepast

Bunbun - Sorry about Dr Who cancelled - I believe the Exhibition on Blackpool Promenade is good but sadly no 'real' Doctors.

Talking of which - hope all goes well Choccy.
