    Rainmac make the most of your "rest day" tomorrow before the start of the summer holidays. I recommend feet up with a mug of coffee and a BIG slice of Alice cake or better still a humongus square of your famous Rocky Road :) Oh god I wish I wasn't on a diet.........

    Do you know I was thinking of making an Alice cake on my lazy day tomorrow, I love it, perfect with a cuppa x

    Gonna ask real silly questions now. Sorry. I'm going to see the fundraising coordinator tomorrow at carly's hospital . We were wondering if it would be a wise move to register as a business then we could take advantage of some of the warehouses etc around here but i'm unsure what registering would entail anyone got any ideas? Thanks .

    kms you have some lovely makes on your blog, I especailly like the mini soaps you have made. Your cards are fine, don't worry about them, just keep on trying different things and eventually you will find a style you like and are comfortable with. It takes time to build up your stash and there are lots of freebies, images and papers to download to get you going.

    CG - when we had our restaurant and we wanted to go to the cash and carry warehouses etc., we had to provide proof of being a business, usually invoices from a couple of suppliers, our own letterhead or business card.

    As you're seeing the fundraising co-ordinator I'm wondering if she has access, or knows how you can get access, to any of the warehouses.

    Don't forget that their prices are usually ex-VAT so not always as cheap as it appears - Makro as an example.

    Rusty - very well done to your OH :T.

    Still trying to get onto the CLBOTB website but too busy but there is a message saying

    Go to the place you pasted your background code
    Find in the code where it says: i342.photobucket.com/albums/o401/Thecutestblogontheblock/
    Replace it with: thecutestblogontheblock.com/backgrounds/
    Click 'Save'

    This should ensure you keep your template.

    Unfortunately - I have put another one on that I don't like so trying to get onto the site to change it!!!!

    Rainmac - I agree with you about craftygrannys OH. He definately needs to teach some of our OHs what to do!

    Rusty - Well done to your OH.

    Flourgirl - the fluffy stuff on your card looks great. What is it?
