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

Glittermum

Evening again ladies! COnfession time, I'm in bed, flicking between ANTM and I'm a Celeb with my lappy!

Sunrise - lovely cards.

Louby - I hope your fair goes well - I can't believe you're doing one in your advanced state of pregnancy!

Helping HUbby - congrats on your bargains. YOu know we're mostly bug fans here!

Craftygranny - I reckon a cart in the shopping centre should do well. If I don't quite manage to get anything to you this week I'll make it for your next one!

FLourgirl - your shopping spree sounds lovely - if busy. Venice for New Year sounds wonderful.

Rusty - one word for you REST!

Nannyboo - I think promarkers are more like watercolour pens and they blend really nicely. You also don't get brush marks.

Rainmac - fabulous easel cards

Ooh - Craftygranny I've got some baby cards. I'll try and post tomorrow.

To all those poorly ones. or with poorly dear ones :grouphug:

Beautiful cards everyone. Ive had a quick blog hop but not left any comments. Thats on my tomorrows list

CT1972 Ive emailed you back

Skiergirl Hope you are feeling better soon and anyone else who is feeling poorly. Think Paddingtondoo is poorly too

I love these easel cards and must try to make one. Are they easier than swing cards ? LOL

Thank You it's like a sweetie shop here we've been bagging up humbugs just need the labels on now. My lovely son has been working on those for me .

Poor Kaitlyn was nearly sick she stole a humbug and when she got the taste she couldn't spit it out fast enough . lol

Had to give her a crunchie to get rid of the taste .

Hope all the poorlies are feeling better soon and huge hugs to you all.

Rainmac Do I need to save that link to my favourites? I feel a challenge coming on :rotfl:

Rusty I thought you had slipped a disc and hurt your legs when you fell over in the bedroom in your red shiny 6" heel stilleto shoes :rotfl:Sorry! enough now! x

They weren't red!! they were black :rotfl:


Right Was it dragonllew who made the lovely popcorn tub as a ribbon tub? I have a lovely show box (clarks in maddison size) which I think would be perfect to cover and then use some eyelets in the side, only thing is I only have one size of eyelets which are not massive but should be ok to push the ribbon through. Do I need to buy some bigger eyelets? or even some grommits? (think they are the massive holes?)
Can anyone help please?

My grannybasher comes today :j :j :j so I have a lovely day out with her and my Aunt til I drop my aunt back at the train station tonight then I am hoping I will find some time to craft whilst my basher is here as she can keep DD occupied for me I hope! (DD loves basher as does DS and when she is here they are both all over her!!)

Also whilst I am here .... I bought the deckled nesties yesterday off ebay, I was wondering if you think they would look ok mounted on a straight edged rectangle underneath? I don't have any normal rectangle nesties but thought I could at least cut some card down to mount under the deckled edge or would it look silly?? These are the ones I have bought!

I thought I'd ask here in case anyone missed me other post :rolleyes:

I wondered if anyone had a Christmassy template for printing off some nice tags or labels please?

I know someone used Serif Plus before and I have got that free programme, but I can't find the Xmas labels on it

Thanks

Rusty I cant see why not. The best thing to do is to try it and if you like it that all that matters.

Hope you have a fab day with your rellies x
