Marg

I'm having serious mojo problems since I got back from my hols & it's not for want of trying! I am aware I owe quite a lot and there are birthdays on the way if you see a mojo please send it to me.

That said, CGC can you pm me your addy for the crafty place friendship swap.

Many thank you's Dragonllew for my lovely teapot ATC & card.

Flourgirl - you've probably set off now but have a good break with your family.

Rusty - hope you are having a fun fling in Scotland.

Craftygranny - I've not forgotten about Alicia - will be in touch soon - if my Mojo doesn't come back you'll have a whole craft kit donated!!!!

JHB - Congratulations on your degree results and best of luck with your business venture

Sorry if I've not mentioned you I think MOJO has taken my memory too!

craftygranny

Louby lou lou Thank you have pm'd you my addy .

Giggle fab coaster calendars I think someone said they were selling them for £1 can't remember who though.
Marg my memory is long gone too. I have no mojo either at the mo so haven't done any cards for a few days just pots of gold, snowman soup and had a go at making 2 towel cakes.

THE-WIFE_3

WOW! :T Skiergirl, thanks for the info as there are a few blog on the list that I don't have.

Lei i love all those jingle bells i'll have to find those tubes i think rainmac said e bay but where do you get the beans.

craftygranny, the test tubes were from this seller on eBay and came the next day:

http://shop.ebay.co.uk/n1cknick/m.html?LH_BIN=1&_ipg=&_sc=1&_sop=15&_trksid=p3911.c0.m301

I got specific coloured Jelly Belly Beans from two different sellers on eBay but this one was better and they came alot faster:

http://shop.ebay.co.uk/jwspackaging/m.html?LH_BIN=1&_nkw=jelly+belly&_trkparms=65%253A12%257C66%253A2%257C39%253A1%257C72%253A2472&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_sop=15&_sc=1

I think there's about 90 jelly beans per 100g and 13 fit in each test tube! The flavours I used are white = coconut, red = red cherry and green = green apple.


Mumhug, the font i've used on my Jingle Beans is called Pea Biggio and is from here:

http://kevinandamanda.com/fonts/fontsforpeas/page/2/

There's instructions on how to install them too:

I have a word file with my labels which fit the third smallest Standard Circles Large Nestabilities (1⅞") if you want me to send it to you?
