Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

Tom's Mum - I'm on the DT for OSAAT - will email Sam in a mo to check she's had your email - I know she doesn't always get to her machine during the week.

Wifey - I normally use Eezee mount on my rubber but have just tried some kling on but haven't used the stamps as yet - If not I just use DST

Very quiet in the house this morning - last day at school for DD - OH is at work and cat went to the vets this morning to have some dental work done - can't remember ever being completely alone in the house is weird

Good morning all. I'm on a major catch up today (house-wise not blogs, did that yesterday). Haven't done much this week and was out all day yesterday. OH is setting up the new printer on my craft desk. The sun's just peeking through so hopefully a brighter day after a rainy start, I really need to get into the garden as well. I might even get around to putting some washing in - good job there's only two of us!

Looks like a few of us have sorted our blog backgrounds, I never managed to get back onto TCBOTB so found some others and am happy enough with them. Got matching headers too which is nice.

Thanks Padster, hopefully Ali with read that as well. I really got into a mess with webmail the other day, only did two emails and they both came back to me somehow (shruggy shoulders thingy) so I didn't know if they were automatically copied to me as well as going to the recipient or if they ever did get to their intended destination! I think when I got my big computer back I emailed again, can't remember now. Blimey, it's bad! :rotfl: . There's usually a time frame for claiming prizes, can't remember what it says at OSAAT.

Right, much as I'd like to sit here all day I really must get into gear today, no excuses! Have a good day everyone.

Morning

I was at the Oncology department yesterday with my auntie for hopefully her last lot of chemo. It was a long day and I was exhausted. I was supposed to be going to the cinema in the evening but was just too tired.

What is this about the cutest little blog - I have their background but have not heard anything from them, nothing was written to warn me on my blog! I'm just testing some new template designs!! It does say that the message will stay on blogs until Friday and then disappear. I don't even have the message lol!!!

OAP - congrats on your baby news!!!! A new baby for Christmas!!
craftygranny - what a lovely OH you have!! If he bought it then it doesn't count in your 'trying to cut back' as it was a gift!!!!!
jowri - sorry to hear about the loss of step great nan.
Marg - hope your computer starts to behave now after it's MOT!!!

I am gradually catching up on all of the blogs. I had nearly 200 posts after coming back from Marrakech!!!! If you have got the dreaded word verification on your blog comments then it's possible that I commented and didn't do the word verification so the comment was lost - sorry but sometimes if in a hurry I forget to scroll down to check. I wish Blogger would ban verification on blogs as it is a real pain. You can remove it yourselves very easily though!!!!!!

I really want to make some cards but I am not feeling very creative at the moment!!!

Took me ages to get on to my own blog this morning so i have only put a few of the teachers gifts on there more to come

Just a quickie from me as am at work (don't tell the boss!)

Wanted to saya HUGE thanks to the lveoly wife for the storage she sent me - it arrived yesterday but I didn't logon the pc at all yesterday as was having problems with my eyes. They started playing up at the cinema when we went to see Toy Story 3. I actually had to remove my contact Lenses in the cinema in the dark without a mirror as I couldn't see to walk to the toilets to do it. Watching the remainder of the 3d film with just one working eye left me with a rather nasty headache so I went straight to bed when we got in. Film was fab though - I left with red eyes, a small damp patch on my t-shirt where tears had dripped off my chin and nail marks in my hands from trying not to actualy sob at the end, I had no chance though - there were grown men snuffling. I cried in Beauty & the Beast when I saw it so it was a given there were gonna be tears from me.

Sadly though I may have already 'lost' the storage as "&son" has plans for what can be stored in it. will try and negotiate it back this evening - it's niice to share.

Thanks again Wifey!
