she says at the end of the tutorial that it can take 35-45 minutes, for me, counting it in days!!!!!

I was thinking the same lol takes me longer than that to make a card!

Hi guys! Just dipping in quickly to ask what is the quality of card like from craftsuperstore?
i am after these:
http://www.craftsuperstore.co.uk/Crafts/Card-Blanks/Square-Card-Blanks-and-Envelopes/White/sc1519/p7434.aspx

but want them to look like quite good quality. Never order from here before, any idea about quality and delivery time?

thanks in advance

actually, there are other things Im stuck with (wedding invites yay!) so I've posted a little post on my blog if anyone can help I'd be so grateful

Re: the question on your blog about the roller glues - I was in wilkinsons on the weekend and noticed the roller glues - There are two in a pack and are the create and craft range and best of all they were £1.00 for the pack - So I picked some up thinking well if they were not any good I had only paid a pound anyways - Well I tried them and they are great - Sticks everything down incredibly well (and I was also sticking card on glas kiln jars and they are still solidly stuck there now) - So dont know if thats any good for you?

Glittermum - here is the 'Little Musings' picture of my hubby & I at my bruv's wedding in Mauritius - I LOVE it - thinking of getting it printed onto canvas for my hubby for Valentines day...

Omg that is amazing and soo cute! I've ordered a watercolour canvas to give OH for Valentine's day and can't wait to see how it turns out now x

My Gran's op has been postponed to tomorrow now - she's got to have replacement valves and a bypass. She's a lot calmer now luckily and the funny thing is the surgeon who will be doing her op looks like my Uncle's twin lol x

Has anyone here got a round it all thingy? I'm just wondering if they are easy to use, and if they give a more professional look?

Thank you!

Morning all! No back pain this morning :j it can't last.

What's one of them then, Saucy? I did an internet search and found a site that could get you a paper round!! Nah! not for me :rotfl:

A corner punch or the Martha Stewart round the page punches or the thingy from Fiskars that cuts circles perhaps?
