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

Marg

SalesAdmin - I'd go for scallops on the basis that if 'push came to shove' you could draw a circle yourself but you'd never draw scallops?:rotfl:

The wife - Did my ATC arrive please? Posted it Friday afternoon Sorry to ask but I'm paranoid & convinced Royal Mail loose my parcels on purpose!!

Dragonllew - Your forces cards arrived yesterday - Thank you

Flourgirl - Thank you your forces cards came today. Thank you so much for the gift of a pretty card and glittery peel offs. I want to play now but it's sunny here so I've got to do the garden while I can.

Sorry I have been really dopey!! Just realised that ....

Paddingtondoo & Marg - I posted your images but never put the card in for you!!! so if you get a A4 sized envelope with do not bend on it, then it is from me! sorry.

Rainmac - I posted your packet and put in a card, but suddenly realised that I haven't wrote in it :rotfl: Oh well!!

salesadmin - I have large circles but also have large petite scallop circles (has smaller scallops than the regular ones) and I use both loads - so no help here :rotfl:. I did buy the normal circles first as I just can't cut straight.

Will watch for the postie and batter him if he bends it Rusty - I must be a good customer coz he calls me by name when he sees me in the street :rotfl:. Are you sure you got enough charms to practise.

Have been busy again 2 calendars last night and nearly 2 notebooks today - coasters arrived today as well so a few post it note holders in the pipeline

Rainamc - just spotted your alternative advent calendar on your blog - it's gorgeous. Did you just write the label? If so your writing is lovely!

Just worked out cheaper :rotfl: I had about 12 tabs open which was £13 delivered ... so £3.85 was quite a saving on some to practice on :rotfl: My postman was the same, but they have changed again now and I dont like this new one!! .... Even the ladies in the local post office know me by name .... and one of the ladies lives down the road and if I send anything registered or special she writes my address on the back :rotfl:

Where is the best place to get beer mats? i have asked on freecycle but no luck. I want to make a start next week when ds starts big school. I am trying not to go out to the shops with him it's just not worth the hassle so i will have to get some from some where next week or are you getting them on-line?
