I had some ribbons from these people as part of a bargain offer & wouldn't have paid full price 'cos of the selection they sent, but 'proper' orders may be OK as the quality wasn't bad and leastways you could compare their prices. I think Flourgirl & Gemma ordered from them too they may have an opinion HTH

I ordered the packs of ribbon that were £1 apparently down from £5. I thought they were ok for a quid each but had I paid £5 each I think I'd be annoyed.

I've been having the day from hell, starting off with my dream last night that the kittens escaped (they are house cats) and wouldn't come back inside. Then I woke up at 7:50 (i usually get up at 6:30 and leave the house at 7:30) and started panicking -Imust have slept right through my alarm, and been turning it off in my sleep as the snooze would have gone off every 10 mins betweeen 6 and 7 :eek: how nice of my OH to wonder why I hadn't gotten up yet :mad: (he gets up at 6!)

so after managing somehow to get ready for work in 10 minutes I left at 8:00 to find the bin lorry blocking the end of our road, how considerate, so had to turn round and go the long way round, and in the process of doing so I almost skidded on all the ice into a parked car, I really thought I was going to hit it as my ABS was going into overdrive, i just shut my eyes and must have stopped about 5 inches away from it! at least I managaed to get to work in one piece I suppose!

I am hoping the rest of the day is better getting up late always throws me off the for rest of the day!

everyones cards have been so gorgeous, I am sorry not to leave individual comments but this thread goes so fast it's all I can do to keep up with reading the posts sometimes! for anyone that has a blog I do always try to leave you a comment on there

Thanks for all the support guys - feeling much calmer now. The whisky on the cornflakes was just the trick Marg :rotfl:

Planets must be in the wrong alignment for this thread today - washing machines, kitchen cupboards, oversleeping and narky neighbours :eek:. Well as the song says "things can only get better".

Lovely cards Lyndach and love the colouring on Mo Manning stamps Rusty. Have promised myself a proper blog hop after I have defugged ds's bedroom - best get started then.

Take care everyone, Thriftyxxx

She is beautiful I can't wait to have children, I love babies. I was gutted to give up my nannying job, the twins I looked after were lovely and I looked after them from two weeks old til 2 years, everyone thought they were mine.

Ramble ramble, sorry! :rotfl:

My glitterpot order is with royal mail, !nd I've got madaboutcards coming tomorrow...I'm addicted!!

Popkins as for the ribbons-i found crafty ribbons this time a bit naff and if I had paid full price I would have sent them back. I bought some lovely organza ribbon from the Range I think there was 5 mts on a roll for 99p its in the haberdashery bit, if you get it there you can at least see what shade you are buying.

Rusty is there supposed to be something wrong with your coulouring in? It looks perfect to me, much much better than any of mine. That paper and image are perfect parteners

Lyndach What a cute little girl. A perfect girlfriend for little Elliot Your cards are lovely too x

Sal I hope today turns out to be a much better day for you xx

Gemm getting up late in the mornings for work is the worst possible start to the day. I hope things improve as the day goes on. x
