Hi ladies I have been busy here making cards for the troops which will be in the post tomorrow.

I have started a blog too the link is http://intheairingcupboardcrafts.blogspot.com/

I have added rainmac is it okay to add the rest of you to my side bar?

Have a few questions for you all too if yyou donn't mind

How do I re size the free digi stamps i get from various sites?

I need something to colour these with and I have whispers pens which I am finding very childlike iykwim. I have been looking at promarkers and copics and I think I am going to go down the promarkers route but how many should I buy and which colours??? I have a £30 budget.

Also I know alot of you do swaps for each other which is great and just wanted to say I have a cricut expression with a few carts so if you need anything cut out just give me a pm ( I don't manage to get on everyday) and if I have the right cart I will cut them out for you no problems.

Like many of us on this thread I have just bought some Promarkers (15) and am loving them, they are so easy to use. I can't advise on what colours as I'm only a beginner but I have bought some from
Joanna Sheens website as they are as cheap as anywhere and she does free postage, plus very quick

I don't mind if you want to add my blog to your side bar

Happy Birthday Sally - hope you've had a good day.

Bunbun and Sillyinthepast - I'm now following your blogs.

Glad to hear that Kaitlyn is feeling a lot better, Craftygranny.

After seeing links yesterday, I am almost certain that I'll get a cuttlebug, but before I do, are they really easy to use? and where is a good place (cheap) to buy the folders that you need to go with it. Trying to justify buying one really. I bought a crop-a-dial a while ago, and desipte paying around £30 it just sits in my cupboard. I don't want the same to happen if I get a cuttlebug.

CT they are very very easy to use you just put your paper in with a die or inside a folder and turn the handle. My granddaughter is only 6 and she can use it with no effort. The folders are quite cheap £3-4 each but the nesties are around £17-20 depends where you buy. Craft Superstore is probably the cheapest for the machine with the 15% code PC22. They give loyalty point too but you must open an account first.
