Just a quicky from me.

a BIG HUGE MASSIVE thankyou to Rainmac for the lovely parcel of goodies that arrived for me today. I will take a picture later on but at the min I can't stay on here cause I am in so much pain.

Not had a chance to catch up with posts either, or PM's sorry ladies.

Catch you later on xxx

Promarkerettes!! if anyone has a spare promarker, even the most yuckiest (in your opinion) of colours I'd love to try one out on the work in progress I'm doing with the inkjet fixative spray. I've got a few copic ciao pens (not enough) but haven't got a clue how it would work with promarkers. If there's no spares with anyone, I'll check back with you all when it's time for next month's swap on the CP and print and spray some for you to try with your own pens.

Does anyone have a good source for a nice but not too expensive notebook to use for a journal jar - maybe with a hard cover?

Thanks x

Salesadmin your parcel arrived today thank you ever so much! I loved it all!! I've put the body shop stuff away to use for our stay over in the hotel! The boxes are so cute!!!!! I loved your card, did you use the pro markers? I was so impressed!:j

It's no problem at all! Yes I used my promarkers, can't put them down at the moment, I've had to buy some more images from Pollycraft as I'm getting bored of colouring the ones I've got :rotfl:

Thanks for the link to stampezee, only thing is, they are out of stock of the one nestability I want! I'm looking on ebay now!

Mrs Tidge - I think Wilkos have some nice (& cheap) hard back note books.

Here's a card I made for my mam to give to her friend who has just moved house. I thought it was quite pretty for one of my first cards:D

Rainmac - your altered container is gorgeous and so are the matching bits. What paper pads did you get?

What paper pads??? Sorry Mel, I'm having a tired day and my brain has stopped working

Back with it now :rolleyes: :rotfl:, from Papercraft Inspirations you mean ? I got a set of black/white/pink flocked Papermania handmade papers. Not my kind of thing at all (too fancy ) but I've used them tonight to try and make a card for the latest CCC challenge. I don't like the card and found the papers really hard to work with but I think I will enter it anyway as it meets the criteria . Another was a 2x12 pack of Papermania paper and the third didn't have any details on it, looks like it could be Dovecraft to me? Not bad for free

I got a couple of A5 ones from Asda they're ring bound kind of like a bind it all and have kraft style covers - know they were in the sale a while back - have you tried the £1 shop am sure I've seen some in there and think Tesco do them.

Thank you Sometimes I worry that people think oh god, more homemade carp, where can we hide this

Rainmac - the paper pads that you got for getting your card published - or have I made it up?????
