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

JailhouseBabe

Polly - tried to leave a comment on your blog but couldn't; it's lovely. I wish I had enough promarkers to colour co-ordinate with my papers.
craftygranny - I love your card, you'd pay a fortune for something like that in the shops.
hels - good luck with the interview.
Gemma - well done on getting published. I've left a comment on your blog, I'm totally in awe!!

I've just been to hobbycraft as I couldn't resist the idea of more promarkers, but they only had the skin tones, brights and pastels - and they're the ones I've got already. I really wanted the greys.

My exam went well today - I reckon I got at least 60% but I'm hoping for closer to 70%.

I'd love to go to the show at the NEC as it's only a 20 min journey on the train from Coventry. Can someone post me the link for the clubcard deal please?

Stitched card and a couple of other bits on my blog.

Fingers crossed jhb - I was always fine doing the exams but went to pieces opening the results .

Gemm - your cross stitch is lovely - how long did it take? You totally deserve your goodies. I did one a few years ago with teeny stitching but it took about 2 years and I swear nearly ruined my eyesight - I've never done one since. I might do a photo actually because Ido love it! Think I'd better get to Hobbycraft tomorrow before all the MSErs buy all the cheap promarkers!:rotfl:

Polly - another lovely card. That's another BG range I need to get!

CraftyGranny - that stitched card is amazing - really effective.

Louby Lou Lou - fab baby card. All the images are lovely. How's the pg going? Are you blooming now

I can't believe I missed the post about promarkers!! I've been wanting some for ages but haven't been able to justify the price...might ask oh if he wants to go to Maplin tomorrow (next to Hobbycraft!)

I just had to share this http://www.myweddingdressforless.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=7&products_id=128 I think it's "the one" was expecting to spend MUCH more than that too!

Padster - your stitched card is gorgeous

JHB - fingers crossed - glad you think it went OK.

They use Milly Bridal - why don't you go direct to them and see if you can save a bit more to finance your promarkers - its $220 on there about £140 :beer:
My dress last year came from Landy and was under £100!

Crfatygranny - fab card, I love how you've stitched on the dress!

Paddingtondoo - fab stitched card - your tree looks fab!

Salesadmin - that wedding dress is gorgeous!!!

Padster - I love your card, it's so effective. Will try again to comment on blog later - it always seems to be hit and miss whether or not I can leave comments.

salesadmin - that dress is gorgeous. I can't believe how inexpensive it is (don't want to say cheap, because it certainly doesn't look cheap!). There's some lovely cards on your blog, I love the images. And I now have a Xyron Sticker Maker in a shopping basket... I'm waiting to see if some lovely elves will buy it for me. :rolleyes:

craftygranny - I'm jealous of all your promarkers.
