  • I made my first card yesterday using the items I had bought from ebay including lucky dips and the £1 shop. It's pretty simple but I think my aunt will like it (she just had a baby girl!)

    I bought the Basic Grey Baby Girl rub-ons from ebay and I'm looking at the papers online - they are so nice!
  • Well ladies im back sorry didnt come on last night but i was shatterd and just crashed out on the settee.

    I had a fantastic time and got lots of goodies when i have time i will take a pic and put it on my blog. I got a few bargins which is always a good thing i managed to get 200 sheets of plain white smooth card for stamping 300gsm perfect for promarkers for £10 which is a bargin as ive been paying over £4 for 20 sheets and apperently is a good card as my friend uses it.

    I also got the cutest Tilda stamp dressed up as a witch :rotfl::rotfl:as i havnt anything for the halloween challenges that will be popping up in blogland.

    I got the sugar nellie Daisy stamp and some LOTV stamps and a few over bits like double sided tape and sissors and a poky tool.

    Ive been trying to leave comments on your blogs but having troubles looks like Mr Blogger is in a bad mood :rotfl::rotfl: i will try again later. xxxx
  • hi - this is my first visit to this thread and i'm a little overwhelmed! I love love making cards but always sit for an hour struggling for ideas so i end up not making many at all. Is there a thread with just the pics of the cards on without all the posts inbetween that i can browse through?

    Hi! wayforward, I get lots of inspiration from splitcoaststampers and also ukscrappers . Splitcoast has a huge card gallery, be prepared to be there for ages. Otherwise, stick around and catch up on the MSE bloggers. Try visiting a craft site and see what they have on their blogs or in their galleries. Look for paper ranges that you like and check out their blogs too.
