Evening ladies, will return later to do a fuller reply!

I've been so busy sorting Christmas out for everyone else I haven't thought about what I'd like. Sooo - what's on your Christmas lists ladies?

Christmas Wish List = Electric Big Shot

What about yourself?

This month's ATC swaps on Crafty Place - sorry it's late but went to bed early last night as felt rubbish

Sorry, I’ve been awol again – real life so gets in the way of my crafting. I’ve been so busy that I haven’t had a chance get on and read this thread so when I logged on yesterday, I had 20 pages to read through.

So glad everyone who went to the NEC had a fab time.

Sally – sorry to hear about your brother, you are in my thoughts.

Rainmac – really glad that your fair went so well, and you made quite a bit. Good luck with the other 3 you have left to do.

Craftygranny, good luck with your table top sale. Really hope you make loads of money for Alicia’s appeal. Hope her operation this week is goes smoothly.

Hope you manage to get your kitchen floor sorted Flourgirl without too much hassle.

Gemm - are your kittens behaving better today?

Thanks the wife, for the link to the ebay seller of the card candy. I've been after some for ages so have bought a packet of the mixed ones.

Choccy - thanks for the message, i'll email you later tonight.

Princess - hope your baby is better soon

Mary - hope your OH is also feeling better soon.

I got a chance to make a few cards, and with the help of Sally and a useful link to a tutorial, I have made my first towel/ blanket cake for a friend that had a little boy last Wednesday. I’m pleased with the result, and hope she likes it. I have just put them all on my blog.


I can’t remember who has been poorly, so hope everyone who is feeling under the weather feels better soon.

Will ' blog hop' after I've done the washing up, to see what fabbie things you have all been making.

Me too, rusty!;) all those joyful weekends when OH returns

Just bought another set of nesties, this time the plain hearts and a new set of cutting mats. For the wedding bits I'm doing, of course!

Oh, I do hope the card candy is ok after me posting the link.

Cor blimey you lot have one track minds!! Do none of you remember I have a slipped disc in my back and bad pain in my legs!! what makes you think I am capable of doing such things :rotfl: ... OK enough enough! nice to see you all think I am crazy enough to have more though!! as if my life isn't hectic enough!!

And on that note I am off for an early night (alone I might add!) as it has been a busy weekend and I have been up since 3:30am!!

THE-WIFE - You aint blaming me for your nestie splurge!! I however blamed my tablet taking for the nesties I purchased this morning :rotfl: I ordered deckled rectangles, not really for me but I wanted to make a nice christmas card for OH and use my snowy stamp!!
