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

Marg

Can anyone help please?

1) I've got scalloped circles nesties but no idea which:eek: - lost the packaging and want plain circle to match - Is there only one type of circles? Will they match anyway? I could send some scallops cut out if it would help. I'm so sad....

2) Thought I'd try to resurrect my blog but don't know how to:

Put blinkies from other people on it?

Link to here?

enter competitions? (not got time) but hey maybe one day!

Thank you if you can help - Is there an idiots guide to blogs anywhere I should read?

Marg, try the spellbinders website www.spellbinderspaperarts.com they should have all the sizes. I've got the large scallops and happy to help. PM on it's way to you with my address.

peppop check out the headers at the top of a blog you like, usually where the background comes from is shown. Check mine out www.craftywife.blogspot.com its another site different styles to cg's

Hi everyone just a quick question from me, can anyone recommend any scissors for cutting as I have a couple of pairs but when I cut ribbon it keeps fraying I am looking for some that would prevent fraying ribbon

I'm trying to read back through all of these posts as they are so helpful ... I dont want to miss anything!
I finally managed to make a couple more cards. Wish I had more time at the moment, hope I can do a couple more tonight.
Trying to get my head around the printable digi stamps at the moment and how you colour them in etc ... not sure if I should spend money on more bits until I'll used my bits I have more

Anyhoo ... here's a link to a couple of the card I've made

Hello
Still not had time to post all I should:o. I have seen some fabulous cards on my limited blog hop rainmac, Padster, thrifty,lei & Dragonllew flourgirl DTB to name but a few - think I commented as I viewed - if nor - sorry.

Mel - can't wait to see your mosaic

Sally - sorry to hear of your facebook woes, just shows how a good thing can be bad sometimes. Hope it's soon resolved for you - great 'cakes' btw. Good Luck for OH tomorrow!

Mimmacka - Hello!

Flourgirl - Hope all goes well for your Dad tomorrow and Mum copes OK without him. Think it's brill that your son & DIL would like you to clean for them - My Mum used to do it for us when she gave up work, it was simply the best time ever - spends for her and I used to come home to a lovely clean house, ironing done, often the makings of our evening meal ready, or I'd go home to have lunch with her Bliss!

Lou05 Beautiful writing n your cards, which machine do you have ? Appologies if i am assuming its a machine and it isnt

If i can do a blog anyone can

Go to blogger.com
Sign up to do a blog
Pick blog name
pick a basic background
Blog away

Thats what i did anyway then added more complicated stuff as i went along

flourgirl - your card is lovely. Is the 'thank you' a stamp? I think I need to invest in a couple like 'thank you', 'happy birthday 'etc

Updated my blog with a challenge card earlier and thought I would give the blog a tweek and add a signature. OMG I wish I had left things alone, I have just spent the best part of 2 hours trying to get things back to how they were!! Had to ask for help from DH, so lesson learnt, leave well alone

flourgirl - your card is lovely. Is the 'thank you' a stamp? Think I may need to invest in a couple.
