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

melissa75_2

Just popping on quickly - I'm meant to be cooking dinner!! I was going to do the draw tonight for the xmas present swap over on crafty place so this is your last chance to join in!! If it ends on an odd number I don't mind having two swap partners 'cos I thought a 3 way swap wouldn't be as nice as a 2 way iyswim!!!!

Eee I`m rubbish at keeping up with this thread!

I did manage to pick up a scallop circle punch - which is fab! Ive made some little pink tags to label some candles I`m adding into the gift bags I`m making for the girls at work - nothing spectacular tho. I`m going to post some pics on my blog at the weekend ( when I have daylight to work with!)

Still no Christmas cards... eek! Ive got so many projects on at the mo - I really should use a to do list!

Aww mumhug thats really bad. Rotten colleagues!

Its great to pop on here for a good old cheer up tho!

No i arent one of the lucky lottery winners - but i wish i was, i'm so jealous they look sickeningly happy and look like they have always been that happy even before the win.

We live in the middle of no-where so have a very limited almost non-existent social life especially as we have 3 kids so it is very rare that we have a night out together - so crafting is my pleasure.

I have struggled on with the rocket card all day and my mum has just turned up with a parcel for me, its my scor-pal, it got delivered to hers this morning and she has had it all day, i soooooo could have done with it earlier today.

Im probably not gonna do any crafting tonight - as i feel terrible, I have been hit by this rotten flu bug that is going round and its taking a hold rather quickly. But i might manage to blog hop.

BunBun your card looks fab!
Princess - hope you are feeling better soon - looking forward to seeing your makes at the weekend. Also, can I ask what card/paper it was that you printed your images on - as just been colouring some in and the promarkers love it - no bleeding!!

Has anyone had a problem with only certain colours of pro marker bleeding?? I stamped an image earlier today and went to colour it in and one colour bled - yet the other didn't??

princesswoo & Marg - i'm glad you're images arrived. The stamps are gorgeous aren't they? Have fun colouring them



Rusty I've used Memento ink as I know you use ProMarkers so they shouldn't bleed but I actually think that Stazon gave a crisper image when I stamped some for myself...

popkins & mygeorgie hopefully your packages arrive safely too x

The images arrived this morning - thank you so much!! :T they are gorgeous!!! I can't wait to try my new pro-markers on them!!!! :A

Rusty - I have sent you a pm over at CP!!!

Evening ladies. Just wanted to put in a link to some stamps that are on the craftyplace. They are a RAK and all I ask is you please read the whole thread as there are a couple of conditions which I don't think are unreasonable i.e no selling on etc!! There may also be 1 more to come, I have however offered this to paddingtondoo as it is a bear and I think she would kill me if I didn't ask her to give it a new home first :rotfl: If however she doesn't want it then I will add it to the RAK! Keep your eyes peeled for some more stuff, hopefully I will have some more to get rid of!

Enjoy! x

Have Pm'd you rusty - was so excited forgot to say thank you .
You don't have to worry about ninja bear visiting you in the night :rotfl::rotfl:
