    Rainmac - £70!!!! Well done thats fab!!!

    Loving the Easel cards!! but I'm sure I'd fail miserably - maybe give it a go this week as I've now finished all the 30 Xmas Cards my mum ordered from me!!! Haven't a clue what to charge for them!!! Think I'll just try and work out how much the materials cost & then just charge for that - don't think I'll charge for my time as its my mum!! :rolleyes: Mmmm now if they were for someone other than my mum then I'd want to charge for my time deffo but lord knows how much!! :confused:

    Would be grateful for some advice off you lovely ladies - I have updated my blog so if you could have a look at the cards please and let me know how much you think I should charge for them - how much would you charge? TIA!!! :D
