Wow you got some fabby bargains!! Think I need to try and get up there at some point and wander til I find bargains!!!

I need a lunchbox for DS, he is using his old old one which is still in perfect condition but I always let him have a new one!!! Wonder where I can buy a Gforce one from?

Bet your DS feels like a big boy now hope you are using your free time wisely and well done on your win!!!! .....

Glad your bits arrived safely. Hope you liked them

Rusty, the GI Joe and Crayola stuff in my Sainsbury's was at the tills rather than in the stationery section

I can understand about not wanting to drive but you need to look back at all the years you've been driving without an accident.

I love everything you gave me, far too generous missus x

Rainmac - I pre-ordered about 12 promarkers a couple of weeks ago. I went for quite a few more pinks, the duck egg one and a couple of plumy coloured ones I think. I've still got to order my vanilla one to colour my bears. How many have you got now???

I've just had a count, got 32 and one on the way Plus another 6 freebies and I'll have 39 :beer:
I struggle with greens, I have 3 or 4 but never think I have the right shade for the job :rolleyes:

My freebies will come from the Secret Crafter who do free postage and they have those very cute Helz Cuppelditch stamps, £5.50 each

I agree about the greens - I've got loads and still struggle. OH wants me to order some for his brother for his birthday - I might sneak a few in for me too!!!

Hiya Myz not sure if this will help but with your clear stamps get an ordinary rubber - pencil eraser and give your stamps a good going over. Next time you have a few pence to spare Tim Holtz does this pad which is good for stamping on and also sort of priming your stamps, it looks like a very gentle scouring pad.
.

Sorry for delay for everyone not been too great just trying to catch up. Is that the guy that does the stickles? Been drooling over a £26 set of 17 or so of those- need to sell a lot before I can buy though lol bet they'll be gone. Thanks

Myzdamena - your card looks great - i love your image - is it from a stamp or a download????
.

It is easy die cut things I got from create and craft a few months ago, little princess and little monsters or something here it is.. has been good for Little Myz to play about with as no scissors required lol

*hugs* and sorry to take so long answering things

Congratulations to all three winners of the candies. I see so many but I don't really enter many as I'm not a regular reader. There are so many nice candies out there aren't there? Not to mention the challenges but by the time I'm well enough at the moment to make something and have the idea the week is up lol... I quickly made the lace card the other day as it was mostly on the table after Little Myz had had a play hehe .. which reminds me should enter before I forget I guess

....I suppose I should enter any challenges I see that are 'names in a hat' to win... not my fault I'm useless is it? lol

hugs xxx

I thought I was being good ... Polly phoned this afternoon for a long natter (coor that woman can gas!!) (:rotfl: only jokin polly love ya really!) She asked how many I had .... and I looked at my spreadsheet and I have ... 73 :eek: but 3 of them are duplicates which I have put to one side for someone.

Not had a chance to catch up on blogs this afternoon as yet. Just picked up Ds from school so need to do his reading with him and still have his invites to finish off!! .... OH is coming home tonight :j :j :j I am so excited to have him home one day early, but it is only bacause he has a doctors appointment tomorrow (he has found a lump on his neck ) hopefully will craft this afternoon as I was too busy cleaning and moving furniture this morning!!

Big thank you to Rusty! - my images came this afternoon along with my Papermaze order :j.

Didn't realise you lot had so many promarkers and still don't have the right colours :rotfl:- I have the grand total of 5 (but I do have vanilla for bears )

Am trying to write myself a shopping list for Harrogate to make sure I get what I need - is quite long for some reason .
