Princesswoo a lot of us are Xbox 360 widows.... I guess I am lucky that OH got bored with the PS3 so it is only used as a bluray player ... although I am still an xbox widow but luckily I bought him a case so he takes it away with him!

I know I love those stamps, aren't they gorgeous, I had a quick google and found the stamps for £5.99 each so with a bit more digging could probably find them cheaper

So sorry to hear you have whiplash, not what you need now is it :rolleyes: Hope the new painkillers start kicking in and help take some of that nasty pain away for you.

I have made an altered container for the challenge on the C.R.A.F.T challenge blog, what do you think... http://rainmacsplace.blogspot.com/2009/09/craft-challenge-15-anything-except-card.html. I have started making my container for Rusty's challenge over on CP too.

I received a package of 3 paper pads today for having a card appear in Papercraft Inspirations a couple of months ago :T. So, well worth submitting pics of cards and other stuff as you may get something back

Yeah the green would be ok for Christmas but no red. Skin tones would be fine for bears

I've sold some items on ebay so off to have a look at Pollycraft and other places for digital images!

Morning Ladies


Flourgirl - your stuff on your blog is amazing - can you tell me about the 'poinsetta'? Is it a rub on? can you say what make?
Flourgirl & Furry - The Works near me had the mini calendars but they were 15p if it helps.

snipped your post sorry

The poinsetta is a peel off from Craft Creations, you are suppose to make the layers on acetate and build them up like decoupage. I wanted it to lay flat this time.

I managed to buy some calendars this morning in the Scun-thorpe Range the stand was full I think they had restocked after Padster had been:D

Thank you, nothing I've done really, it's just really pretty paper, so blooming glad I kept the tin last Xmas

You are so going to love Promarkers I wish the fine pen was a bit finer but apart from that, no complaints with them from me, apart from I don't have enough of them

My first promarkers were delivered today as well - quite impressed except with the smell - they stink!

Am just having a coffee break - have made 3 1/2 cards so far - not many more to go - thank goodness for rainmacs stash swap :rotfl:.

I've just had an email about papercraft essentials magazine. They are offering what looks like the whole Smirk Christmas range if you subscribe for £11.97 per quarter, as far as I'm aware you can subscribe for only one quarter then cancel and keep the goodies!! It's worth £35 and I buy this magazine anyway so have treated myself with my birthday money (which I haven't got yet as I'm being good and not opening my cards until tomorrow!)

Rainmac - I also wish that the fine tip was just a bit finer!

Are there any shops that are offering the new pro markers and nestabilities? looking to buy some of both but don't want 2 lot's of postage!!
