Fantastic news Mary.

Sorry you have poorlies Rainmac - hopefully they'll soon be on the mend.
I had to pick DD up from school yesterday as she plus at least 5 others from her class had been sick - she said the dinner tasted funny - can't have been anything too serious as she had lost the green tinge after half an hour and was tucking in to jam on toast :rotfl:.

Another easel with a twist on my blog

Flourgirl - You have to try the diam cake in Ikea it's fab.

DTB Please give "&son" a big pat on the back from me, his cards are great and a fantastic cause too.

Paddingtondoo - I really like you easel box / card. Very clever :T
Well I finally got the finger out tonight and made my next card. Hopefully this will work (I seem to have a big problem getting pictures onto my post using photobucket - is it me or does anyone else go mad trying to do this. Am I missing the obvious..?)

Well my bind it all showed up! At 4 minutes to 11.
The company didn't have any small wires so sent a HUGE one, which is far too big, but I might have to use anyway to test it out.
The locks appear to be broken, however...sucky

DTB your sons cards are brilliant and how lovely of him to be thinking of others and wanting to help. Giving his time and using his creativity should get the thumbs up from his headmaster and I bet the teachers will buy all of his cards and want more. Good luck to him xx

Gutted - I only found out about the Boots sale tonight and doubt they'll have anything left now. Those baubles are great though, I decorated some for my Gran for Christmas:

Question for Glittermum or anyone with Nellie's Multiframes

I had my early birthday present from my DD come through the post today :j, two of the Nellies multiframe dies. Ermmmmmmmmmmm, how do I use them .

I've googled but there's not much out there, not even on Nellie's website as the multiframe link doesn't have English, just pictures. It shows in pics 1 and 2 cutting with a craft knife to separate the round one into three circles. Pics 8 and 9 show different mats and frames. I'm probably being thick but do I use one of the circles to get the mats in pic 8 and two of the frames to get the frames in pic 9.

Anything I should know before I open the packets and spoil my new toys?

Correct - the mats in picture 8 are done by cutting the dies apart and using them seperately then the frames in pic 9 are done by combining the dies x
