    Just had time to catch up on the last few pages of posts.

    Sorry I can't remember who did what but some lovely makes. Especially love the garden hat.

    Haven't done any sewing but have managed to buy some more material, many lining material. Went to Dunelm and sorted through the bin ends. Got 1 mtr red, 1/2 mtr cream and 1 mtr black lining plus 1/2 metre of black and 1/2 metre white iron on interfacing all for £11. Didn't think that was too bad. Have to say this buying material lark is getting expensive.

    Have also managed to have a good tidy of the spare bedroom. Have cleared 2 and a half shelves on the craft wardrobe. The good news is that I am managed to look in each box and sort as I go. Now have scissors, stamps & stamp pads, embellishments, stamps and glue all in separate boxes. Still have a way to go before everything goes back in but really pleased with my start.

    Away the weekend so no crafting for me. Keep up the good work everyone look forward to seeing your makes next week.

    Love the make. Can anyone tell me how to attach/include a photo to a message please?

    The photos have to have been uploaded somewhere on the internet first. Like Photobucket, or Flicker. Then you can click on the link above, the picture of a postcard, and can then copy and paste,
    alternatively if you have a blog, you can copy and paste from the blog. Not exactly totally technical, but hopefully its a start. Sure someone will come accross and explain it better then I can.
    I used to go through Photobucket, but now that i have a blog, I just litterally click copy on the picture, and then paste onto my post. Simples!!;)


    Ooops, sorry didnt see the entries earlier on the top of a new page on my laptop!

    Mooloo, I didn't realise you could copy and paste from your blog. I've still been going through photobucket.

    Give it a try next time. See if it works for you too.! Saves me so much time and effort. Although most people can see the blog if they want too so they see mostly the same pictures. Oh well.!!
    Talking of pictures, I am going to see if I can organise a clearing to photograph the bags. Its a bit dark, dull and wet so it wont be from the garden this time.

    Sad to not that Martin is getting problems on FB. Havent seen them myself, but on one of the other threads its mentioned. Right time to move.

    I didn't know you could copy and paste blog images either so I just always link because it is too much effort to sit and wait for photos to upload on photobucket especially as all my images are huge and take forever!

    Hi Florenceem :D you have to put your pic's on photobucket or flicker then you right click on it, copy the URL code then come back to this thread and click on the square pic at the top with the mountain and stamp. You then paste the code into the box and ok it and the pic will be posted here :D

    I hope this is clear for you :D

    I use photobucket and resize my pic's to medium so they don't end up too big here :D
