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

paddingtondoo

Rusty - was cutting the foamy bit of the easy mount - it usually gets stuck to the scissors and leaves an edge bit that is a cat fur magnet :rotfl:.

I hate glitter - have some that I've never even opened - might give it a go later .

Melissa - I've got some odd MME sheets that I've bought in sales no idea what ranges they are though - have bloom and grow and wild asparagus which I don't want to cut up

Wow furry - how old do you feel today (joke) DD went into year 5 this morning which is the oldest class in her school (only 95 kids up to year 6 so they teach 2 years together) she's gonna have a shock as her new teacher is what I call a proper teacher - quite scarey :rotfl: - hope she has a good day today!

I'm all excited - have won the Charizma Cards Challenge with my scrapbook page - 5 sheets of digi downloads from Daisy May - only problem is there's loads to choose from

Brilliant, another winner from our group :T :j :beer: :A Huge well done Padster and your page was gorgeous and so a very well-deserved win

Can't remember who asked (just read about 5 pages and I was here yesterday :rolleyes: ) about neat edges on the coaster calendars, I use a craft knife and then an emery board to make all the edges neat and smooth. Just make sure you go in the same direction all the time. HTH
