    Morning ladies

    Welcome back everyone who went to the NEC, I'm very jealous! lol

    I'm loving all the wonderful cards that have been made recently, they look absolutely fabulous!

    I'm going to have to get my finger out and get some more things made for this craft fayre that I'm doing for the local hospice on 29th Nov, I'm so worried that I won't have enough stuff to sell or nothing will sell!

    I've made several towel cakes which I've put onto my http://sallyukscards.blogspot.com/, but think I'll need to make some other smaller things which I'm about to do this afternoon.

    Help! lol

    Sally - I love all your towel cakes - they look great.
    Popkins - that is some stash!!!
    What lovely gifts as well!

    At the NEC was it nice to look round - or was it a bit of a bun fight trying to get in to see everything???

    craftygranny - will hopefully be sending you a parcel for Alicias appeal tomorrow, hope it gets there safely.

    ali - at the start of the day it was very busy and difficult to get to the front of some stalls, towards the end of the day the crowds thinned out a bit and you could actually breathe!! lol

    Hello all..............glad you had a super time at NEC (knew you would) and love all the stuff you're doing.......makes me feel really bad.........I'm all behind myself................maybe once OH's been to hospital on Tuesday and had his endoscopy thing I'll feel more settled. I keep getting bits half done then go off in a tangent on something else:confused:

    Sorry I've done nothing for Ikki or Alicia so far............I haven't forgotten, honest, just been trying to catch up with myself.

    rainmac - love the bit paper clip you've done............how did you get that to stick to the card ?
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

  • I started making cards as a way to save money...but then i get an idea in my head for one, and go out and spend a tenner on supplies! :rolleyes: I haven't been doing it long tho, so haven't got a stash to speak of...well, that's my excuse for buying pretties anyway! :D

    popkins - thats a fantastic stash you have there.

    All those goodies look lovely - very thoughtful of everyone.

    Alyssa - Excellent 1st card

    Intastella - thats exactly what I started thinking , I now know that making cards yourself DOES NOT save you money, it costs you a fortune.
    :TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
    :T fortune with those less fortunate :T
    :T than themselves - you know who you are!
