    Thank you Furrypig!

    You sound just like me - I can never remember what I've seen where or who's posted what, that's why I say well done to everyone, hope no one things that's me being rude, it's just that my memory is rubbish - it's an age thing you know! lol

    Off to work, catch you all later.

    OOH! thank you very much, Ali, for my blog award. Will check that out this evening.

    Will pop back later, this is a sneaky at work.

    Hope everyone is well and good to hear that the pain is easing, Rusty.

    Hello :santa2: Haven't had a chance to catch up yet and not sure when I will but just wanted to pop on and say I took a massive £140 over the weekend at the 2 fairs. It was a lot of work but worth it. The preschool fair made a huge £650 and a local chap has pledged to double it so we are very happy :D I have a few orders of bits and bobs to make up so will be a busy bee over the next week.

    Hope everyone's ok xxx

    Lei-Armstrong - your bear card is lovely - what colour did you use to colour them??

    Thanks! I used cinnamon, cocoa and burnt sienna for the bear and then lavendar, lilac and amethyst for his accessories x

    Afternoon all :j

    Just popping on to say I am pain free in my leg :j :j :j :j :j :j .... my back however is absolute agony :( but it is worth putting up with that cause I have a leg which has feeling!! I am soooo happy!!

    Also wanted to pop on and say a massive thankyou for Furrypig for the lovely card which arrived on my doorstep this afternoon. Thankyou hun ;) xx

    OH took me to a local craftshop (https://www.craftsite.co.uk) and bought me 2 sets of nesties, a new embossing folder and some gems for the christmas cards :j :j so I need to get busy busy!!

    P.S If anyone wants anything from the site above let me know and I can pick it up for you ;) saves on postage costs!

    Can't stop as we are decorating the office so DD can have a bedroom before christmas and also trying to get everything else sorted! :eek:

    Rusty - that is good news about your leg!!
    rainmac - what brilliant news - well done you!!!

    Finally got round to putting a few things on my blog - and been faffing on with the background - if anyone tries to leave a comment and can't (I think it was alyssa? had a problem when she changed hers) would you let me know on here - many many thanks.

    Also, been trying to download envelope templates from 2 sites but for some reason the computer won't let me think they were papermill.com & desk top - could anybody recommend another site for me to try?? Thanks again in advance.

    mary -
    yes its just single word answers I think you could copy and paste them and maybe put them on here - mind you I am not very sure - dont want to give you the wrong advice - so maybe someone else could clarify.

    Mary-op -Join the confused club with me! I'm going to try to answer on here later. Hope Mr Mary is doing OK......

    Rainmac - Brilliant results! Well Done!:j:j How's the 'flu jab arm? Better I hope.

    Rusty - So pleased for you - Don't overdo it!! Perhaps just your back re-acting to the operation?

    Wifey - Was it you posted a neat way to put ribbon & a bow on a card please? If so, can you tell me where? I seem to recall it involved punching a small hole? I'm sorry if I've got it wrong.....Confused club member

    Will blog hop later too
