Afternoon girls. DS1 a bit under the weather so not at the holiday club today. DH and I are sharing duties and he's just gone in to work and I've just come home!

Wish me luck please - I just got the last space at the best local craft fair round here - as long as I only have a couple of cards! Rainmac and Flourgirl - I shall be blatantly stealing all your ideas! I've done them before but with just cards which is very hard work - but I love interacting with the public so always have a good day even if I don't make any money!

Just bought 100 jumbo paperclips for bookmarks - can bring some to the NEC if anyone fancies some.

I've got a possible order for a notepad and calender idea that my customer has had
basically she wants an A4 piece of card with a small spiral notepad attached, then some photos on it and one of those tiny calenders
she wants magnets on the back so it can stick to the fridge
what sort of cardboard should I use ??? its got to be quite sturdy ??
also how much do those long thin notepads work out in Asdas or tescos or somewhere like that I've noticed some of you have used these in your creations

I've been reading through your messages and looking at your blogs and came across the trio of mints but now cant' find the message to quote lol
anyway they look fantastic !! and I also read somewhere that whoever made them used their stampin up scallop and circle punch , were they expensive and where can I get them , stampin up are supposed to be at the NEC are they likely to have them there ???

Have had a bit of a tidy up on my desk today, sorry for the rubbish photo.
