    Have played with whispers pens and water this afternoon and even got my craft knife out - have checked and still have all my fingers so a swing card might not be impossible.

    padster do you need a kiddies version of a craft knife?! Like those blunt scissors that don't cut :D

    Indeedy - Have had it for years and it frightens me so I've only used it 3 times or so.

    Tried left handed scissors and couldn't work em :rotfl: although I'm fine with my left handed dressmakers shears weird :confused:.

    If anyone is short of a bear or 2 PM me and I'll stamp you some
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

  • oooh flourgirl i bought the pens and post it notes this afternoon in my asda . Post it's were only 2 quid here too lol.

    Well i have now been to 3 aldi's and still found no t bags. my o/h is going to doncaster at the end of the week and he's promised to look there. I even phoned my fil and asked him to look in preston.

    I'm a bit worried now i rang my eldest earlier and asked him for some beer mats and he said ok how many a full pack and i said as many as you can get. please tell me there aren't many in a pack. i have visions of him turning up with thousands pmsl.

    Not cardmaking i know but for those who do nappy cakes my netto tonight was selling 2 boxes of huggies nappies for a tenner .
