Just asking for a very small favour of all you lovely cuttlebugglers!

Ikki over on Ikkies Cuttlebug Cupboard here is asking for a card to be sent to her for sale by her Breast Cancer Unit to raise funds.

Ikkie is a mine of information and, although I don't have a Bug, everything she writes about is so worthwhile and if I have a problem with any Spellbinders stuff, she's usually the one with the answers. Please can you help?

Ta!

Thank you for that The Wife I will definatley send some cards. I had a scare myself earlier this year and know just how important screening is. Fortunately I was one of the lucky ones.

I've just seen some photos in the September stash - is that the standard of what people send? It's amazing and extremely generous. I really don't think I have that much nice stuff.

Oh you busy lot, crafting and blogging away...........:rotfl: You wear me out.....................lol
There was me with great ideas of clearing out our megga messy walk into pantry..............didn't sleep too well (OH had a few bad nights -last night he slept ok.........I kept waking up to check on him...........hence now feeling a bit jaded :rolleyes:)
So, spent the morning fiddling with three more robins breakfasts...........only once did I manage to empty all the birdseed over the table...................lol:rotfl:
Thats it with them now I think...........six done, think thats enough for this year.
Tomorrow -must do pantry !!!

@rainmac - I also love the elizabeth shaw idea, I looked at Helen's blog - she does some amazing stuff doesn't she? Is she on this forum? I don't have a round or scallop punch Any ideas how I can easily make these?

Elizabeth shaws are BOGOF in Morissons and I've been looking for a budget way of decorating my tree with sweets and chocolates.

I got some candy canes yesterday which I'm going to make into reindeer candy canes still got my pipe cleaners and pom poms from last years reindeer flannels.

I have left a comment on her blog, I will try and make a handful of cards to send to her. Such a worthy cause. Just hope my cards will be good enough!!

Rainmac your craft fair goodies are gorgeous your brilliant ideas are always carried out with perfection. The Jingle beans are brill, i WANT TO DO SOME OF THE MINTS FOR THE TREE (woops caps!) but darent buy them yet cos I will eat them lol

WOW!! Rusty Love your Halloween bags they are fantastic. Full of yummy goodies, Thorntons Chocolate is my fave. I am sat eating a bag of ASDA chocolate buttons I have bought for snowman soup! I knew at the time it was too early to buy them!!

Thanks Jamtart

Wow your snowman spares and rudolph spares are beautiful!! I know I asked before but was it labels four which you have used for the tags on the rudolph spares?? they are gorgeous I really need some but shouldn't be buying them myself when OH wants to buy me some for christmas!! ... As for the Thorntons, I love them and I also love buying the little lollys and things that they do for the kids, they are quite expensive though (around 60p each :eek:) but the kids love them and they know they only get them ones as a special treat


Jamtart - Thankyou

Rainmac - wow wow wow! your test tubes look amazing!! I wanted to make some myself but thought it was a waste ... I might just buy some and make some for OH and the children ... or I could possibly stretch to MIL & FIL aswell what do you think? Car isn't fixed yet ... but parts have been ordered and will be delivered tomorrow morning so hopefully I will have a car by the weekend ... although something else could still go wrong!

Craftygranny - Certainly feels like it at the moment!!

Meant to also say that I will be making my own santas letters this year so if anyone wants me to do them one personalised then I will do it and email it over then you just need to print Saves paying extortionate prices for them and also they can be personalised Just found one which I love so want to copy the same kind of idea¬
