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

pinkladymel

Hels, Did you see meeeee in the magazine I have got a Craft Robo which is the Silhouette but because it isn't made by Quickcutz I can't access their files.. HOWEVER.. I will dig out my copy of that mag and look at the place cards to see what they look like and then see if I can find a lookalike to cut out for you? Would that be alright?

Rainmac WHEW I'm glad what I said was OK because your stall truly looked amazing and I wouldn't want to put you off or anything. There was nothing wrong with the cellophane.. but I thought it was kind of muscling in on your artwork trying to take away the attention when that is what we all swoon over on here! Can't wait to see the Christmas stall. I am trying to get mine ready but it's hard to know what I can make right now!

Mumhug - don't do it. I echo what everyone else has said. I'm sure loads of us have got rid of stuff and then regretted it later!

Lovely cards everyone, and PLM your Xmas blog was lovley but seems to have disappeared today!

Methinks I'd better get Docrafts soon - need to get cracking on Xmas -0 defo want to make some calendars!

See you all later (don't tell my boss I was here!)

MrsTidge

PLM - it was just the linky in your last message that was wrong - the blog is still there!

Thank you for your kind offer, that's really lovely of you! I'm getting married in December and I've fallen in love with the starburst placecards! I'm so excited about having a christmassy wedding!

Hels I am in the Creativity Life bit, the Scrapbook Apprentice part.. If I am on about the right magazine.. did you buy Creativity or Do Crafts? I was going to get married at Christmas it would be so exciting. I wanted a furry hand muff and a red dress for the reception I had this idea to do a giant secret santa where I gave everyone a name on their invitation to buy for with a few facts about that persons dislikes and likes, then we would all have a mystery gift at dinner. I hope all of your preparations go well x

Our plans are coming on lovely I'm excited and very stressed! The hotel where our reception is being held has a massive santa's grotto with lots of little elves I'll be making sure I have a few pics with santa!!

Hi all I just wanted to say I am going to take your advice and not be hasty about my stash. I have sold everything once before and regreted it. I will have a look around for some sketches or something to see if I can get some enthusiasm for it . Normally new stash does that for me but pennies not allowing for that at the moment. I think that was part of the reason i was thinking of selling as i spend so much on card stuff and never make anything back.
