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

pretzelnut

gemma85 - no not both at the same time, i settled just for chocolate on its own.

lei-armstrong: I too want some nestabilities - where's the best place to buy them from. I have been watching vid's on youtube and i am amazed at what i can put through it. I have learnt several new tips.

The kids were driving me mental today - they've had 2 weeks off for half term as we live in scotland so i said to DF can we drop them off at the naughty chidrens home on our way into town.

He said that it would be easier to take me to the mental institute, GREAT IDEA i said, 3 square meals a day, loads of drugs, can sleep when i want and as therapy i get to do arts and crafts all day. I started to pack he stopped me.

wow, I have just started reading my new issue of Docrafts Creativity mag and have seen that Pinkladymel has won the scrapbook apprentice challenge!!! apologies if this has already been discussed and I missed it, I just want to say a huge congrats to her! :j


p.s. I got this mag from Sainsburys today, it's in a package with Papercraft Inspirations mag which you pay £3.99 for and get the Docrafts one free (worth £2) I thought it was worth it as they both have clear stamp sets included too (this offer is only at Sainsburys btw )

WOW WOW WOW, PLM kept that very quiet :T :j :beer: Brilliant news!!! I ordered the magazine from the Glitterpot on Saturday, the post the way it is, goodness knows when it will arrive :rolleyes:

Craftygranny, I've added the blinkie for Alicia's blog to my blog and will get some cards and other bits done. Have you seen the pegs on my blog, would some of those be ok to make for you?

We've stopped watching X Factor really cos I am worried OH will throw something at the TV when the twins are on

Hope everyone has a good day x

2 weeks off, they've just had the summer holidays :eek: Mine are off from today and back on Tuesday next week. DS1 has football today and Wednesday, a party tomorrow afternoon and another one on Thursday. A friend to play on Friday and karate Friday evening. Quite a full week so I hope that will help the arguing between DS1 and DS2

I've threatened my OH that I'll go back to work full-time if he doesn't start pulling his weight at home, it's like living with 3 children :rolleyes:

Rainmac - in scotland the kids summer holidays start the 4th july and they go back to school around the 16th August.

I shall play around with my blog later and see if i can figure out how to add the button.

I have convinced DF to take me to the craft shop today to get some bits and bobs.
And to keep my eye out for some nestabilities. <

Then were off to view our new house that we decided to move into having only seen the outside as it was a total wreck, floors collapsing etc as no-one had lived in it for 20 years so was a safety hazard, but last week it had been stripped bare and the renovations start today so we are having a tour inside and looking atthe kitchen plans to make sure everything is where we want it to be. And should be able to move in, in 6 weeks time.
